| 研究実績の概要 |
The team presented at the Japan Studies Association of Canada (JSAC) conference in October 2017 and at the Japan Association for Migration Policy studies (JAMPS) conference in December 2017. Both presentations were well attended.
September 2017 interviewed major representatives related to suburban emergency medical agencies in Southern California, New York City, San Francisco and Denver, USA.September 2017 visited CLAIR (自治体国際化協会). Conducted interviews regarding their role in public disaster awareness education. CLAIR outlined a complex network of international centers that provide auxiliary support to local governments in relation to the foreign community.CLAIR also provided information on the types of risk communication support they provide, including multilingual signage, cross-cultural training, and disaster interpreter and volunteer training.December 2017 visited 4 wards and prefectural offices in Tokyo. Obtained samples of public disaster awareness materials from each.
Collection and analysis of disaster prevention plans and multicultural plans are well underway in Japan. We have developed a preliminary set of indicators with which to measure the degree of accessibility of public hazard information for non-Japanese speakers in Japanese cities. Collection of equivalent documents in Australia is also underway.
We have also commenced the development of our planned database of best-practice CALD public hazard education projects.

理由
Our research findings were generally well received, although it has been recommended that we expand our selection of cases to include smaller cities, so that we can capture a greater diversity of public hazard education approaches, and examine whether the size of a city is a greater predictor of the amount of public hazard education provided than actual hazard risk profiles. This recommendation has been integrated into our project design.
Locating comparable materials for municipal governments within a single country is a challenge. Given the difference between population sizes, delegated responsibilities, and risk profiles of cities within each country, cross-national comparison has presented problems also. We now believe that we have found a suitable framework to proceed.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Content analysis of Disaster Plans for all Designated Cities and Core Cities of Japan. Selection of specific policy cases in Japan and Australia to explore impact of multicultural policy on inclusion of foreign communities in disaster planning. We also plan to conduct interviews with municipal governments throughout 2018.
Structure of database is complete. From June 2018 we intend to commence entering data, which will include budget data, specific policy case data, geo-spatial and historical disaster data for analysis in late 2018 early 2019. We have commenced working with the University of Sydney to improve our database and to develop a publicly accessible web-portal.
We plan to present our findings and show our database at the Japanese Studies Association of Australia (JSAA) in 2019.

| 次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
After being awarded the grant, we found that there was a major presentation opportunity in Australia in June 2019. For that purpose, we determined that it would be better to reduce the numbers of researchers traveling to each country in year one to enable all members to attend and present our final findings in Australia in 2019, which will include the announcement of our database of best practice policies for public hazard education.
