Integrated Disaster Reduction Systems
The laboratory is exploring effective education systems, risk communication systems, evacuation methods and emergency response policies to establish ‘practice-oriented’ disaster risk reduction systems based on social science disciplines such as social psychology, sociology, and institutional economics.
Disaster Risk Management
They analyze physical and socio-economic impacts of Natechs (Natural-disaster-triggered technological accidents) and countermeasures for reducing overall losses and increasing societal resilience by applying multidisciplinary skills and knowledge from a variety of disciplines such as engineering, sociology, economics, and disaster risk management.
