Traditional and local knowledge of Eco-DRR at the foot of Hira Mountains
This publication is a part of a five-volume booklet series on "Eco-DRR as Learned from Local History" which was produced as a part of "Research and Social Implementation of Ecosystem-based Disaster Risk Reduction as Climate Change Adaptation in Shrinking Society" implemented by the Research Institute for Humanity and Nature, Kyoto, Japan.
The series of booklets “Eco-DRR as Learned from Local History” emerged from a desire to trigger a reexamination of how our forebears dealt with both the positive and negative aspects of nature. If learning traditional and local knowledge can make people consider the history of the relationship between nature and us, and contribute—even a little—to building better relationships between us amid ongoing climate change and socioeconomic changes, the hard work of the many involved with the publication of this series will be rewarded. Although the road ahead may seem long, I believe that firm steps are being taken throughout society.
