[Saving Lives, Protecting Livelihoods #5] The Power of Evacuation Center Support: Towards a Place of Mutual Support Through Connection
FY2025 Third Ushi-Oni Conference Workshop
What can we consider and how can we act as preparation for the predicted Nankai Trough Earthquake, given the challenges of shelter management learned from the West Japan Heavy Rain Disaster?
In this workshop, we will hear from practitioners who were involved in shelter management at the time, and all participants will collectively consider what can be done from the perspective of supporters.
We invite NPOs, companies, government agencies, students, and others to participate in this opportunity to converse across different sectors.
