The Tokyo Metropolitan Government, in collaboration with the Disaster Prevention Center, is offering hands-on tours designed to help foreign residents in Tokyo learn about the city’s disaster prevention guidelines so they can take appropriate evacuation measures in the event of a disaster.
Participants have shared feedback such as, “The experience left a deep impression on me. I want to be more mindful of disaster prevention,”“I gained knowledge not only to help myself but also to help others,” and “I want to share this with my family and friends.” We invite you to join us with your friends and family!
Additionally, this fiscal year, to help spread disaster prevention knowledge beyond the tour participants, we plan to invite influencers and media representatives to share their experiences from the tour.
