4. Focus of this informationInstruction for writers: - For definitions, see the DRH website. http://drh.bosai.go.jp/ Read the definitions of the three kinds of technology/knowledge listed as options for your answer and mark one of the options that fit with the focus of the technology/knowledge you propose. In case it is difficult to choose only one option, you may mark two or three. |

![]() |
5-1. Practitioners- Mark main and sub categories freely.There are no hierarchical rules. - Items of "experts" may overlap with other categories. In that case, mark both categories. Examples of entry: (1) When you wish to choose administrative officers in general, check the box of "Administrative officers". (2) When you wish to specify detailed profession of the experts, mark sub categories such as "Architect and engineers", "Urban planners", etc. You may mark both main and sub categories at the same time, if you wish. |

6. Hazards focused- Secondary hazard should be included in the categories of the original hazards. - Multi-hazard approach: Initiatives that focus on the combined risks of all hazards likely to occur in a given region. Choose the hazards, whose impacts can be possibly reduced by the technology/knowledge you propose. Some additional points: (1) When you think the technology/knowledge is useful in alleviating "desertification", "climate change impact" or "land degradation", mark the items. Even though these three items are not necessarily "hazards", they are included in the list as physical phenomena that potentially cause hazards. (2) If you are proposing a technology/knowledge that can contribute to "multi-hazard approach", which means initiatives that focus on the combined risks of all hazards likely to occur in a given region, mark the item. |
