Abstract

The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) has been working to improve disaster reduction information by introducing special warnings and other measures in response to the frequent occurrence of weather-related disasters that cause significant social losses. However, more technical and specialized weather information is not always well understood by the public, who are the recipients of such information. In this study, therefore, the idea of “Local Weather Information” was the focus of our efforts to transform weather information into information that is more localized and familiar to the public, and to make it more relevant to people’s lives. Action research was conducted with the aim of helping students learn to think of disasters as “my own affairs”. As a result, the students began to associate disasters with their own lives and to learn proactively and describe them as “my own affairs”.
