Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the social factors responsible for community disaster prevention activities in sediment disasters in Japan and Taiwan. It was found that in Japan, community disaster prevention activities are continuing, centered on these historical and institutional systems and plans. In Taiwan, ordinary citizens cooperate with the stakeholders as government and experts to establish the community disaster prevention system. Therefore, both countries could learn valuable lessons from each other. Japan could learn from Taiwan how to shrink the gap between governments, experts and local residents, while Taiwan could learn from Japan how to institutionalize community disaster prevention and planning activities for the unsustainable activities problem.
