On December 5th, 2021, we hosted two earthquake preparedness workshops for the international community. The first workshop was held in simplified Japanese and had participants from China and Belgium. Participants were given interactive activities to demonstrate how being mindful of their current living situations can help them consciously develop a plan if they experience a natural disaster. For example, one of the participants lived with his family and had to figure out everyone\u2019s daily whereabouts to predict if they would be able to reunite if an earthquake occurred.<\/p>\n

Participants working on “visualizing a disaster”<\/p><\/div>\n

In the second workshop, which was run in English, the room was at maximum capacity with over 20 people of all ages, including a child. During this week, all of the participants experienced several recurring earthquakes in Tokyo and were motivated to understand more about responding to emergencies. The room was lively and the audience worked together through various discussion topics and worksheet activities. Everyone worked on \u201cvisualizing\u201d a disaster by organizing a strategic exit plan. Community relations also make a significant impact during times of disaster. Being familiar with neighbors and other members of your community can be incredibly valuable in crucial moments such as natural disasters. After the presentation, the participants discussed what disaster relief efforts were like in other countries and rethought about the procedures of disaster responses in a Japanese context.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
