Last Updated July 3, 2024

Let's walk around the town

In the town, walk around and check the dangerous things in the event of a disaster, local resources (parks, green spaces, etc.) and evacuation sites that are useful in the event of a disaster, and learn about the area and consider issues.

What should be prepared for walking around the town

Let's walk around the town (example of how to proceed)

Everyone will imagine the situation in the area when an earthquake occurs and actively discuss it.
Prepare a map and decide the route for walking around the town. (It is about 1 hour at a time.)

Let's actually walk around the town

  • When walking around the town, the participants cooperate to guide, shoot, and record the route.
  • Let's walk around the town with care of cars.
