March 11th is Raise Awareness of Disaster Prevention Day! This day was established to help people learn from the experience of a great earthquake 15 years ago and to ensure it is not forgotten and does not happen again.

When evacuating during a disaster, pack a bag with the minimum items needed to survive for the first 72 hours after the disaster: food, water, first-aid supplies, and valuables. A rough guideline is 15 kg for men and 10 kg for women.

Whistle

If you happen to be buried alive, this is a tool to conserve your energy better to call for help for a longer period than by yelling.

The floors of homes that have been turned into a mess by earthquakes are often covered in rubble and glass, making it difficult and dangerous to walk barefoot to the entrance.
