| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research addressed disaster preparation challenges for foreign residents in Japan. Recommendations were developed and distributed through international seminars and publications. A reference database was developed to support findings from surveys and interviews. Practical recommendations specific to Japan were derived from a synthesis of Japanese fieldwork and international experiences. Findings: 1) Foreign residents in Japan don't rely solely on the Japanese language; additional outreach methods are needed. 2) Varying disaster preparedness exists among foreign communities due to backgrounds and cultures. Targeting lower-preparedness communities optimises resource allocation. 3) Prior training correlates with preparedness; engage foreign residents through drills. The project filled a critical research gap, focusing on socially disadvantaged foreign residents and providing insights for governments to enhance support and promote safety and participation following a disaster.
