Shinagawa Disaster Project DAY1: An Essential Experience for Community Preparedness
On July 6, 2025, the Shinagawa District Committee of the Tokyo Junior Chamber will host a free disaster prevention experience event known as the "Shinagawa Disaster Project DAY1" at Toyohanomori Academy in Shinagawa, Tokyo. This initiative is part of the committee's endeavor to enhance community resilience against disasters.
The primary goal of this event is to educate attendees about the importance of self-help, mutual assistance, and public aid during disasters. It focuses on self-help as the first step toward building a supportive community capable of helping one another in times of crisis.
The first day of the Shinagawa Disaster Project will feature numerous hands-on workshops and activities aimed particularly at families and younger generations. Participants will have the chance to view disaster preparedness as a personal responsibility integrated into their daily lives.
"From being helped to supporting each other" is the core message of this event. Organizers believe this initiative can be a transformative step toward a brighter future for Shinagawa. Everyone is encouraged to participate alongside family and friends without any prior registration.
