Japan has a long history of fighting against great earthquakes that cause structural damage/collapses, fires and/or tsunami. The Tohoku region are well trained for tsunami-evacuation procedures, with the mindset of “Tsunami, ten-den-ko.”
This article attempts to analyze the reason behind the rise of The Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) and Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) which contributed remarkably to emergency relief activities during the Great East Japan Earthquake.
Voluntary Commitments
The organization has no registered 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.
