This program aims not only to learn disaster prevention and mitigation as knowledge, but also to cultivate the ability to practice it as part of one&#8217;s own life, workplace, and local issues. Taking into account increasingly complex social issues such as a super-low birthrate, aging population, population decline, multicultural coexistence, and information confusion, we aim to foster the knowledge, judgment, and communication skills to make autonomous decisions and act independently, supporting others and communities in times of disaster, rather than waiting for someone to help us. In diverse situations such as home, community, workplace, and travel, acquire concrete wisdom and the ability to &#8220;help yourself and others,&#8221; aiming to build sustainable and resilient local communities.\n<\/p>\n<h3>Outline of the event<\/h3>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Target Audience<\/td>\n<td>\n For working adults (company employees, public servants, university faculty, volunteer staff, etc.), regardless of industry, job type, or specialized knowledge. ) is recommended.<br \/> * Regular students of Kyoto member schools of the University Consortium Kyoto (excluding graduate school and correspondence course students) and students enrolled in all courses at the Open University of Japan Kyoto Learning Center\n\t<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>How to Participate<\/td>\n<td>\n\t\t<strong>[Lectures (On-site  Online Attendance)] [8 episodes in total]<\/strong><br \/> We recommend taking the entire 8-session set, but you can also take it as a single session<br \/>\t\t<strong>\u3008For those attending at the venue\u3009<\/strong><br \/> Location: Campus Plaza Kyoto, 2nd Floor, Conference Room 2  2nd Floor Hall<br \/>  Event Dates: 9\/26 (Sat), 10\/24 (Sat), 11\/21 (Sat), 12\/12 (Sat)<br \/>  Time: 13:30~15:00, 15:15~16:45<br \/>\t\t<strong>\u3008For those taking the course online\u3009<\/strong><br \/> After applying, a viewing URL and other details will be sent to the registered email address (scheduled for Zoom distribution)<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<strong>[Option] Hands-on Disaster Prevention Town Walking Workshop<\/strong><br \/> *Registration required separately from the lecture.

In this lecture, you will learn the concept of DCP (Regional Continuity Planning) that prepares the entire region, taking into account the limitations and possibilities of BCP.

From the perspective of dealing with adults, children are placed in minority positions, but among these children, some are more likely to be at a disadvantage.
