Abstract

In recent years, large-scale disasters have occurred every year in various parts of the country owing to heavy rains. Therefore, the needs for the disaster mitigation and evacuation plans are increasing. The means of developing an evacuation plan include a planning workshop, which has been accomplished by many local governments in recent years. Regarding this effect, it is believed that an evaluation is necessary in the future. Therefore, this study aims to grasp the effects and problems through a workshop for refuge strategy examination.
