Volunteer groups active in Isogo Ward

In the event of a major disaster, infrastructure such as telephone and the Internet will be greatly affected. In order to communicate information on such situations, it was requested by Yokohama City in 1972 and concluded an agreement. In 2008, we concluded an agreement with Isogo Ward. Major activities include communicating information on damage to evacuation shelter and ward offices around member homes and the status of medical institutions to ward offices. From normal times, we conduct a wide range of training to prepare for emergencies and strive to maintain and improve our technology.

Since 2004, Yokohama City has been implementing the “Yokohama Disaster Prevention License Project” to train leaders who handle materials and equipment necessary for evacuation and rescue operations as a core human resource responsible for the establishment and operation of the evacuation shelter.
In 2007, "Yokohama Disaster Prevention License Isoko" was launched to actively support disaster prevention activities in Isogo Ward by utilizing the skills and knowledge of handling equipment acquired through this project.
We conduct inspections and training on equipment and equipment at each evacuation shelter, as well as in the disaster drill of the United Neighborhood Associations.
