Disaster prevention experience tour for foreigners
Tokyo Metropolitan Government is collaborating with the Tokyo Disaster Prevention Center to provide an experiential tour where foreign residents in Tokyo can learn disaster prevention knowledge, in order to raise awareness of disaster prevention.
Participants have given positive feedback, saying things like, “The experience left a deep impression on me. I want to be more mindful of disaster prevention,” “I learned how to help others, not just myself,” and “I want to share this knowledge with my family and friends.”
Please invite your friends and family to join us!
