Public Forum "Disaster Relief and International Cooperation" Report
Abstract
The Policy Alternative Research Institute (PARI) of the University of Tokyo will hold the Public Forum at the International House of Japan, Tokyo, on December 10th, 2011. This public forum is held at adjunct to the annual five university conference with scholars from Princeton University, Peking University, Korea University, National University of Singapore, and the University of Tokyo.
The aim of this forum is to discuss "Disaster Relief and International Cooperation." The devastating earthquake and Tsunami of March 11, 2011, was also an experience where the good will of international society, from U.S., China, to Afghanistan, was extended to the victim. We would like to discuss what the lessons from the aftermath of 3.11 are, and what we can do now to make better changes.
