[S23-P-12] What was the difference of local people between the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake in Japan and the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake in Italy?
Japan Meteorological Agency said smaller earthquake will be happen before the main shock of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake in 14th April. Italian seismologists and officers were found guilty in 2012 for saying it was safe before the main shock of the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake. Experts mistook foreshocks for main shocks in the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake in Japan and the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake in Italy, however local chose different actions. We will introduce analysis of questionnaires survey from local in our presentation.
In addition, we point out following six for important lessons for future disaster education:
1. Teachers should inform students “Seismology has taught us a lot, but there is still a lot we don't know. Earthquake prediction is not impossible today." in disaster education program.
2. It is difficult for human beings to predict events beyond their experience. We need disaster education to learn living lessons in public schools.
3. It is necessary for students to practice of better decision to survive by themselves through disaster education program.
4. It is difficult for human beings to make use of lessons from disasters in other countries because of an instinct for self-preservation that makes them think disasters seldom occur to them and they can survive if they occur. We have to try to learn from living lessons of the world.
5. It is difficult for human beings to pass down living lessons to future generations over decades. Teachers should introduce both good and bad lessons to students from cases in the world.
6. Human beings usually underestimate the danger because they tend to make judgments based on their own experience. On the other hand, experts tend to avoid risk communication to people for fearing spreading panic. We have to doubt information underestimated.
We introduce new activities as a step forward in International Association for Promoting Geoethics. We translate UNESCO English disaster handbook including lessons in Italian and Chinese.
