FIRST
CIRCULAR
The concept of IDNDR had originally been
proposed by Dr. F. Press, President of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences
in 1984, and it is read as we should make the last ten years of the 20th
century "the Decade of International Disasters Reduction" and should cooperate
with one another to mitigate natural disasters in the world. Disaster Prevention
Research Institute (DPRI) of Kyoto University agreed to join the international
movements of IDNDR and research projects under the support of the Ministry
of Education, Science, Sports and Culture, as a special international project
in 1991. Thus the project, "Study of Prediction and Mitigation of Natural
Disasters in Eastern Asia (Indonesia and China)" started as a three years
program. The next five years joint research program started in 1994 with
the overall title "Prediction and Mitigation of Natural Disasters in Indonesia
and China". The main subjects in Indonesia were (1) Igneous Process and
Tectonics, and (2) Disasters Caused by Floods and Geomorphological Change
and Their Mitigation. These projects cover aspects mostly in geoscience
and civil engineering. For both Indonesia and Japan, these activities are
very strategic for the purpose of mitigation of natural hazards. Through
this symposium we will be encouraged to exchange our findings in the field
of our studies for the aim improving strategies, methodologies, and techniques
of our activities in future in Indonesia.
