With its wealth of information and personal stories, we're sure you will find this site provides an exciting way to learn about the effects of a natural disaster and get a taste of life after an earthquake in Gujarat, India.

EQ is an interactive, play-by-email simulation game. Players get to set up their own aid organisation and take on the task of distributing aid and raising funds when an earthquake hits.

Paul Kelly, a New Zealand teacher who spent March 2002 travelling in Gujarat, seeing the effects of the earthquake of January 2001. Students in registered schools asked questions, read regular updates, sent messages and found out about the lives of Gujarati children.
Paul kept schools up to date with regular stories on our website, a weekly fax message, and the weekly audioconference.

Students could also email Paul in the Ask Paul section of this site, and in Get in Touch they could even communicate directly with some of the Gujarati children, via an interpreter.

In Talk About It they discussed issues like dealing with natural disasters, with participating young people in New Zealand and India.

Although Paul is no longer in Gujarat you will still find many exciting things in this site!
