Analysis of practices for multicultural disaster prevention education in Japan from a cultural tuning perspective
In this talk, I will discuss the practice of disaster prevention education from a cultural tuning perspective. Specifically, I will explore the effectiveness of multicultural disaster education for both Japanese and non-Japanese residents in the Yoshizuka area of Hakata Ward, Fukuoka City. The results indicate that multicultural disaster prevention education not only enhances participants' understanding of disaster risks but also fosters better mutual cultural understanding.
