To spread seismic retrofit of houses drastically to reduce the damage of coming large earthquakes, the concept of “the national movement of disaster damage reduction” is effective. In the present paper, some projects done by the local government of Aichi prefecture are introduced and evaluated considering the effectiveness for inducing local people to do their own actions for disaster mitigation. After the analyses, fundamental factors for “the national movement of disaster damage reduction” and their effective application are shown.
