Disaster Preparedness Drill for International Students

October 28, 2026

On Saturday, October 24, 2026, we conducted a disaster preparedness drill at the International Exchange Hall.
The Hall holds regular disaster preparedness drills twice a year—in spring and fall—for its residents. This session included training on making emergency calls, firefighting procedures, and the use of AEDs.

Approximately 130 people, mainly new international students, participated on the day and learned how to call 119, how to use fire extinguishers, and how to handle AEDs.
In addition, to effectively utilize stockpiled supplies nearing their expiration date, we distributed emergency rations (water and survival bread) to participants, providing an opportunity to heighten disaster awareness while deepening interest in reducing food waste.
