Revision of administrative staff training for post-disaster urban recovery trying to improve plan-proposal ability

A conducting report of 9th municipal staff training in Tokyo

Abstract

Tokyo Metropolitan Government has been organizing municipal staff training for post-disaster urban recovery since 1998. Our team has conducted this training since 2005 and reported the actual situations. This training has two crucial points for pre-disaster planning for post-disaster recovery. The former is a pre-consideration for urban recovery plan-making procedures. The latter is improving plan validities proposed by municipalities. In this paper, a revised training program was explained according to these two points. The effect of revision was examined by training outcomes and participants questionnaire data. Finally, limits and agenda of this present training scheme were discussed.
