Ltd.10.26689/jard.v8i1.5917ArticleAnalyzing Disaster Mitigation Policies in Japan and China from an Eco-DRR Perspective: A Comparative Study of Shanghai and Tokyohttps://artdesignp.com/journal/JARD/8/1/10.26689/jard.v8i1.5917TangMinghui,FujitaNaoko2024812024-01-23Global climate change-induced natural disasters require international efforts and the adoption of Eco-Disaster Risk Reduction (Eco-DRR) policies for sustainable development. This study examines the status of Eco-DRR in disaster prevention policies through word cloud analysis, providing insights for policymakers to enhance disaster prevention amid increasing climate-related challenges. Tokyo and Japan prioritize soft aspects, while Shanghai and China emphasize engineering for flood prevention, revealing a gap in Eco-DRR application. Despite these differing approaches, the shared focus on water-related disasters indicates a shift towards urban resilience. Future research should assess policy effectiveness and the impact of Eco-DRR on disaster risk reduction and ecosystem protection.
