キーワード：Gender Equality, Risk management, Minorities, Diversity, Racism, History
Natural disasters happen, so it has been a situation where vulnerabilities and minorities are historically liable to be sacrificed as secondary disaster. For example, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake caused a large number of immigrants from China, whose English and geography were unknown, due to fires. The Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 spread social unrest among people and spread the hoax that Koreans attacked, killing Koreans by vigilante band.
In the COVID-19 Era, violence and repulsion of people from China and Asians, which seem to be the source, occurred. Even in Indonesia, which is famous as a pro-Japanese nation, rumors spread that the first person was infected by a Japanese person, several attacks on Japanese were reported, and Japanese people were alerted as Japan embassy information. Minorities are week in foreign countries. A black man was killed by a police in US and demonstrations are taking place all over the world. In some areas, looting has occurred and social unrest is easily amplified. These have been repeatedly historically. It is extremely difficult to see if this secondary damage can be stopped by ethics, understanding of people, and harmony of races.
UN Secretary-General alarmed COVID-19 risk to women could harm us all. Pandemics economic impact likely to fall hard on females already facing burdens. This situation means excellent young scientist, especially females from developing countries face more difficulties to study in developed countries than before.
What kind of countermeasures can humans take in this situation? This paper specifically explains that diversity, equality and inclusion function for risk management.
