Session Description
In order to achieve a resilient and sustainable society, communication and education based on applied geology are necessary at various levels, including schools, engineers, and local communities. In this session, let’s share ideas with participants through various examples of approaches to learn engineering geology.
Aim of the Session
In recent years, there have been many cases of sediment-related disasters around the world. In order to mitigate damage, knowledge and technology from applied geology are needed in various situations. In addition, disaster prevention education is essential for protecting ourselves from natural disasters. It is important to deepen our understanding of past and future phenomena through communication and education in the field, not just through classroom learning. Please present the findings you have obtained through knowledge transfer activities based on applied geology in various forms. We hope that this will enable participants to share tips that will be useful for future activities.
