Mission
日本災害復興学会は、災害復興学に関わる研究者や災害復興の実践者、メディア関係者らでつくる学会です。座して研究するのではなく、被災からの再生に取り組む人たちと手を結び、被災現場からのメッセージを全国に、次世代に伝え、やさしい社会を創りだすために力を尽くしていくことを目指しています。
同様の思いを持つ仲間が発起人となり、2007年度に日本災害復興学会の準備会が発足しました。発足を記念する最初の学会大会が2008年1月13日、1月14日の両日、関西学院大学で開催され、日本災害復興学会の活動が始まりました。
The Japan Society for Disaster Recovery and Revitalization is an academic society organized by researchers in the field of disaster recovery and revitalization studies, those working on actual reconstruction work, and members of the media. We do not just focus on research but are striving to join hands with people working hard for recovery and revitalization of the disaster-hit areas, disseminate the message from the sites, and pass on it to the next generation. We aim to create a society where everyone can live at ease.
Before the establishment of our society, its founders who shared the same ideals for disaster recovery and revitalization launched the preparatory committee in the fiscal year 2007. Then, we began our activities as the Japan Society for Disaster Recovery and Revitalization when we hold the first academic conference to commemorate the inauguration in the Kwansei Gakuin University on January 13 and 14, 2008.
Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
