advocacy for disaster uaste management, form experienced volunteer

Abstract

It has been reported that many volunteers have participated in support activities during disasters. However, they are limited to activities such as soup kitchens, debris removal, and so-called "eating to support," and there are few reports on disaster waste disposal, and the issues are not recognized. Furthermore, from the perspective of the administrative affairs of basic local governments and the social welfare councils (syakaifukushi-kyougikai) that act on behalf of the disaster volunteer centers, volunteers are treated as only "guroup" and are simply beginners, and their abilities are not utilized and the issues are not visualized.On the other hand, disaster volunteers have accumulated experience, and many volunteers are well versed in the Building Recycling Law(Kennsetsu-Recycling-Law). Rather, they are at the mercy of insufficiently studied local assembly members, disaster victims, administrative officials, and social welfare council officials, and are even looked upon with unnecessary suspicion. The author believes that the efficiency of disaster waste disposal can be improved by deploying a large number of experienced disaster volunteers. I would like to have frank discussions with members of the Society of Waste Management and Recycle to solve the problem.
