Through the personal experiences of Local Storytellers who experienced the disaster, participants learn about the situation at the time, how people evacuated, and the importance of disaster preparedness and disaster risk reduction. Through words that can only be conveyed by those who were actually there, this program provides an opportunity to see disasters as something that concerns oneself and to think about preparations for the future.




This program is recommended for schools seeking deeper learning through school trips or off-campus learning, schools wishing to enrich their Period for Integrated Studies, and those who are interested in social issues and disasters and wish to deepen their own thoughts.
