| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
In August, I wish to have a 3-month internship program at WHO Kobe. While doing an internship, I wish to present my paper to topnotch personnel for its further improvement and learn practical information how WHO handles emergency and disaster related issues especially to PWD. I also want to submit a paper in an international journal of disaster management before December 2014. I am doing a summary review of related literature published in English about the plight of PWD during the Great East Japan Tohoku Earthquake.
