Contribution

The Tokyo Resilience Project is a city-wide preparedness programme that equips residents with practical tools and learning experiences to improve everyday disaster readiness.

In practice, the project operates as a multi-hazard resilience “umbrella”: it strengthens physical protection (e.g., regulating reservoirs and river measures; coastal protection and sea-level-rise readiness; upgrading buildings and lifelines) while also trying to make preparedness “everyday” through accessible products and outreach. Examples of public-facing outputs include:

Case
