Overview
"Eco-DRR (Disaster Risk Reduction Using Ecosystems)" is a concept that takes into account regional characteristics while implementing disaster prevention and mitigation measures, involves the participation of various stakeholders including local residents, avoids development and use of land vulnerable to natural disasters and avoids exposing it to disasters, uses diverse functions of the ecosystem—such as disaster prevention and mitigation—to reduce the vulnerabilities of society, strengthens disaster prevention and mitigation in local communities, ensures biodiversity and ecosystem services, and tries to build a sustainable, safe and rich natural symbiotic society.
We are researching and analyzing areas affected by the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake to assess this possibility.
