| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The number of foreigners residing in Japan has been increasing in recent years, and this trend is expected to continue into the future - especially in the Tokyo metropolitan area. However, Tokyo is also at high risk of a near fault earthquake. This research addressed the issue of how to support foreigners residing in the Tokyo metropolitan area after a future earthquake by first estimating the exposure population at the time such an earthquake may occur, then proposing disaster prevention measures based on current problems as identified through interviews with embassies and local governments in Tokyo. Additionally, workshops for foreign students were also carried out to collect data on foreigners’ information gathering behavior, including the difference in information needs considering the diversity of the foreign population. Future works will focus on continuing data collection including foreign workers who were not explicitly identified in this study in order to expand the database.
