Last Updated February 13, 2019

Let's walk around town

In town, we walk around dangerous thing at the time of disaster, local resources (parks, green spaces, etc.) and evacuation sites that are useful in the event of a disaster, and let's know the area and examine issues.

It's a good thing to prepare for walking around town

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

Everyone imagines the state of the area when an earthquake occurred and actively discuss it.
Prepare a map and decide the route to walk around the town. (Approximately 1 hour at a time.)

Let's actually walk around the town

  • When walking around the town, participants cooperate and guide routes, shoot, record, etc.
  • Let's take care of cars and walk around town.
