In recent years, sediment-related disasters have been occurring frequently throughout Japan due to abnormal weather conditions, and it is important for residents to take disaster prevention countermeasures to mitigate the damage. In this study, we first grasped the actual situation of acquisition of knowledge about sediment-related disasters by residents living around the sediment-related disaster warning areas by questionnaire survey. Secondly, the relationship between knowledge about sediment-related disasters and disaster prevention activities by the local community and sediment-related disasters countermeasures at home was clarified. Thirdly, we proposed measures to promote countermeasures against sediment-related disasters by residents in the future.
