In actual fact, Vanuatu suffers serious damages from natural disasters such as cyclones and earthquakes because it sits along the circum-Pacific volcanic belt and also is situated in a cyclone- and earthquake-prone area. Furthermore, it is projected that serious damages could be experienced from possible tsunamis caused by active volcanic eruptions and frequent earthquakes. Consequently, immediate reinforcement of disaster resilience in tangible and intangible aspects is an urgent and important issue for Vanuatu. This study analyses the disaster risk of Vanuatu based on the World Risk Report in comparison to Tonga and the Phillipines, and subsequently explains the current situation of disasaster prevention in Vanuatu by referring to an on-going technical cooperation project for disaster resilience of Vanuatu. It finally suggests disaster resilienece education in elementary schools should be an intangible significant measure for public awareness to increase resilience to intrinsic disaster risk of Vanuatu.}, pages = {313--319}, title = {ワールドリスクレポートから見える バヌアツ共和国の自然災害リスクと防災力への考察}, volume = {49}, year = {2020}, yomi = {カワサキ, ノリコ and カワサキ, ノリコ} }
