aim was to develop agame which wasgenerally fun to play.
●The ggame teaches
that it is helpful tohave certain items
when an earthquake
suddenly hits.

Illustrations of challenges which occur during an earthquake arepresented, and the players choose cards with possible solutions
from their hand. Points are awarded for the effectiveness and easeof implementation of the solution, and a high score wins the game.

The planning of a new kind of disaster reduction manual,the ”Earthquake Anytime Notebook”•A book which presents the voices of 167
survivors of the Great Hanshin-Awaji

Earthquake, almost all with illustrations, andwith no hierarchy.
•Rather than presenting the material in a one
direction educational manner, an effort wasmade to create an interactive manual thatencourages readers to think for themselves.
•The illustrations present not only theemergency conditions but how the changes attthe

•The conditions in evacuation areas is alsopresented, which is rare for this type of book.
•In addition to physical preparation such as
quake-proofing and furniture-tipping

“Kaeru” is the Frog
“Kaeru” carries thesame pronunciation

Crossroad: A training toolfor disaster preparedness and response• To facilitate mutualcommunication among theparties concerned,‘Crossroad’ seems useful• In order to get a grip with
the idea of Crossroad, letme show some of theaftermath of theearthquake in Kobe area
1995, from which thebasic concept of Crossroadstemmed.
29
Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, Ministry of Interior

Crossroad ; care & Share
In emergency ,it’s
important to learn
appropriate action as thedominant behavior; when
under strain or in a stateof excitement.

1) Accurate knowledge ofdisasters -History of disasters
in local areas-Mechanism of disasters-Information shown on hazard
maps2)The process and scale ofdisasters can be beyond anyexpectations.
-It
It is important to
independently make decisions
and take action.
3)Safety training and ways ofthinking:Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, Ministry of Interior3015

Crossroad’s Character
AIM :“Crossroad” aims at making participants consider the disaster
response –and sharing their own views and opinions in caseof emergency easily with other participants.
In real situation for disaster response, people are forced tostand at a critical juncture to take important decision.

RULE: Crossroad is a kind of game by using 'system' of Crossroadmeans 'rule'. The Crossroad questions have three parts:
1) role, 2) situation, and 3) your decision : Yes or No
alternatives.

KEY

Usually there is no single right answer for the decisionbecause of the different circumstances with uncertain factors.
In “Crossroad”, winning the game is not particularly important.

Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, Ministry of Interior

Crossroad: Flow of the game
１. Read a card

３. Turn the cards face up

２. Put either a ‘YES’ or‘NO’ card, face down

４. Majority＝blue ‘zabuton’（Unique opinion＝Gold ‘zabuton’）16Merits of using a game
1.Positive participation can be expected towards“game” ; not just “play”.
2.Get knowledge or problems for themselves(Voluntary learning)
3.Learning about feelings
4.Participants can notice other people’s ways ofthinking.
5.Realize what issues in term of disaster prevention
are represented by the rules of the game.

Significance of “appreciation”
The significance ofppfor workingg“appreciation”
here in ADRC as a part of thesame house; as same family
ADRC’s house in my idea is: all ofthe staff here is always
generous mind without
expecting anything in return.
Cause your mission issacrificing yourself for thebenefit of the general public
