i. Introduction
The General Directorate of the Civil Defense has taken on its own responsibility the issues of security and safety that occupy in fact a prominent place on the level of automatic interest of human beings, for he is considered a civilian that loves to live within the group, but rather on the level of the states, local and regional and international institutes.

ii. Awareness
The concept of awareness interferes with that of awareness, in a coherent integrated way. But nevertheless, we can say that awareness leads to awareness, and that the cautious person is more able to make the ((dose)) less aware - more than conscious choice. And in all the circumstances, they may be considered as two the sides of one coin, where each one is invaluable and does not exist in the absence of the other one.
It is also meant by awareness the direct realization. And therefore awareness is the basis of all knowledge.
It is clear from this definition the presence of the three procedural elements that consist this concept, they are:

Theoretically, the preventive education is to create awareness against risks, and make to individuals and groups acquire it, to get them to accept the idea of certain conviction or any opinion given, and then to take certain conduct in order to achieve the intended results.
From a procedural standpoint, it could be said that education intends to immunize the members of the community through the multi-media to reduce their exposure to accidents.
