Ms. Ryohei Suda and Ms. Yasuko Yamamoto, first-year students majoring in construction engineering, gave a presentation titled “Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Education and Community Cooperation Activities at Toyota National College of Technology” on the disaster prevention cooperation agreement project with Toyota City (Representative: Takayuki Tanaka) that is being implemented this year. There was also a group discussion on disaster prevention activities. Representatives from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, the Japan Meteorological Agency, and Toyota City also participated, and we received valuable comments. It was a valuable opportunity to share various disaster prevention information from outside the university and build a cooperative relationship for future disaster prevention activities!
