This time, we invited Yoko Kifuji as a lecturer and taught us how to use furoshiki useful in times of disaster.

Everyone brought their own furoshiki and it was the first time in a while that we brought out a furoshiki! I said, listening intently. I learned that a furoshiki that had been sleeping in a drawer can be turned into a convenient backpack, a shoulder bag, and a protection against the cold when it's cold. I also learned that plastic wrap can be used as a substitute for string, that it can be used as memo paper, and that it can be attached to glass to prevent it from scattering if it breaks.

I learned that there are still many ways to use things that are around us to help reduce disasters.

We would also like to invite Mr. Kifuji to come and give the second disaster prevention lecture.
