This IFIP session on IT in Disaster Risk Reduction (ITDRR) is organized to promote a novel area within the IT community, disaster risk reduction (DRR). We have founded an IFIP domain committee on ITDRR and organized annual conferences since 2016. We also organized a workshop related to disaster and diversity at WSIS organized by ITU and UNESCO for three years. We introduce such activities as well as those in Japan: IPSJ as an IFIP Japanese representative, has organized the Disaster Communication Symposium since 2011. We introduce our work as well as introducing this area of research in this session.
