[G02-P01] Thinking about Needs for minority victims in Multicultural Collaboration society
Keywords:Yonmenkaigi System Method, Multicultural Collaboration society, Disaster
In these days, The number of Muslim people living in Japan is increasing year after year, and it’s drawing attention in Japan. The number of international students in Japan has reached 298,900 as at May 1, 2018(Japan Student Services Organization, 2019), There are more than 10,000 international students from countries whose main religion is Islam. In modern Japanese society, it is necessary to understand each other's position as a religious minority and create an environment that can respect cultural and religious diversity. However, there is no detailed discussion on what preparations, actions and cautions Muslims should take during a disaster in disaster countermeasures of the Japanese government.
An important part of a disaster community action plan for small communities is "cohesion." Further It is also important to promote “clarification and sharing of issues” in diverse values. In this study, we focused on "clarification and sharing of issues", and used Yonmenkaigi System Method (YSM), which proposed structuring the process of forming knowledge into action. This Yonmenkaigi System Method is applied in a workshop in which residents and disaster prevention experts cooperate as one of the support methods for action plan by residents. In this study, Muslims and Japanese collaborate using Yonmenkaigi System Method and apply it to the direction to solve the issues.
In order to understand the “clarification of the issues,” we tried to interview two victims (from Bangladesh) of the Great East Japan Earthquake. One of the highlights of the interview was that "Muslims could not imagine living in a shelter." The purpose of making Yonmenkaigi map is to specify the actions and things necessary for Muslims to live in shelter and set the theme "For Muslims to be comfortable in shelters".
Yonmenkaigi System Method applied in this study considers the actions (actions and things) necessary for the issue and the actions (actions and things) to be prepared, and we tried to apply these actions to four dimensions The four dimensions are composed of “organization / money(management)”, “information”, “human resources (Soft Logistics)”, and “physical resources (Hard Logistics)”. Each group (Muslim and Japanese) were in charge of each side, writing ideas(actions) on sticky notes, and clarifying and sharing solutions for the theme issue.
