The workshops at OCU consisted of lectures showing examples of large scale natural disasters in China and Japan and a comparative analysis of the legal systems related to disaster prevention in both countries. It was a meaningful opportunity for both sides to learn from each other's experiences. The entire program lasted one week and included a visit of afflicted areas of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake Memorial Disaster Reduction and Human Renovation Institution and observations of the disaster prevention measures at major companies in Osaka Prefecture.
