Towards disaster risk reduction city
Declaration of DRR City

Disaster damage
and records

Tagajo city, which has a long history
and tradition, was suffered from manynatural disasters such as Jogan
Earthquake in ancient times and 8.5 /9.22 Heavy Rains in recent years.
The Great East Japan Earthquake
caused devastating damage to thenortheast region of Japan, making us feel
how powerless we are in the face ofNature.
We cannot rule out the possibility of
suffering from terrible disasters again likeflood, typhoon, landslide, earthquake,tsunami and so on.
Therefore, in order to prepare for
future disasters, we have to pass on tothe next generation our experience andlessons obtained by surviving naturaldisasters.
We need to understand that each of
us is an agent of town/city development,
and to learn from the history based on
the roles of self-help, mutual assistance,and support by public bodies, and themutual collaboration. From such point ofview, we will promote “Disaster RiskReduction” to minimize damage not only
as responsible individuals but also ascooperative citizens.
We will also make efforts to protect
human lives as top priority, to prepare fordisasters, to minimize damage, and torecover rapidly. Aiming to realize suchcity, we hereby declare “DRR city –Tagajo.”
