A questionnaire survey was conducted to understand the actual situation of young school students, and to seek disaster prevention issues, with the aim of implementing watershed flood control and taking long-term measures to create a safe, resilient and sustainable social environment. The study was conducted in the Natsui River watershed three years after the East Japan Typhoon of 2019. The actual conditions were determined from a simple tabulation of the questionnaires. We conducted a systematic analysis of issues based on the actual conditions using a dimension tree. The main results showed that there was a difference in disaster awareness between upstream and downstream areas, and between junior high school students and elementary school students. In addition, the results of the dimension tree showed that the promotion of common awareness discussion as well as disaster prevention education on campus could be effective in raising awareness of flood risk.
