SEEDS Asia is delighted to welcome 19 DRR related agency officials from 16 countries for our collaborative JICA Training on the “Promotion of Mainstreaming DRR.” Participants learned about legal frameworks/policies which serve as foundations of Japan’s DRR policy, in Tokyo and Hyogo. Through on-site visits to the 2014 landslide disaster areas in Tamba, Hyogo, we were also able to share how mainstreaming DRR occurs on both the national and local level, and how Japan has learned from previous disasters to build a resilient nation!
