Today, we introduce about the activity of “Disaster Prevention THE PRESS" by SHIBATA INDUSTRIAL CO.,LTD. 




“Disaster Prevention THE PRESS" is a project to disseminate information on disaster prevention using digital tools together with young influencers. This project started on June 29, 2020 as a CSR initiative of “SHIBATA INDUSTRIAL CO.,LTD. ”(Head office: Akashi-shi, Hyogo Prefecture; https://www.sbt.co.jp). Together with influencers, we want to be a bridge between large-scale infrastructure development and day-to-day efforts in each household regarding disaster preparedness. To this end, we want to make disaster prevention more accessible to the public. This information dissemination project was started with this in mind.

Disaster prevention is something that is necessary but easily forgotten in daily life because we do not know when it will happen. That is why the influencers themselves will experience a variety of topics from the familiar to the worrisome based on the keywords "disaster prevention" and "disaster," and disseminate information to help people incorporate disaster prevention into their daily lives. The program provides opportunities to learn and to experience things, and to share their thoughts and feelings through their experiences, so that people will be inspired to incorporate disaster prevention into their daily lives.

This project is also included in the "Fiscal 2022 Private Sector Initiatives to Strengthen the National Land Stability" published by the Cabinet Secretariat's National Land Stability Promotion Office. We conduct interviews throughout Japan with the Cabinet Office, Hyogo Prefecture, Kobe City, and other local governments, companies, and organizations. By utilizing university student influencers who do not have expertise in disaster prevention, we are able to provide information on disaster prevention from a perspective that is easier to understand and communicate.
