Mission

浪江町(なみえまち)は、福島県浜通りに位置し、双葉郡に属する町。 

2011年(平成23年)3月11日、東日本大震災で被災。揺れや津波による被害に加えて、震災により発生した福島第一原子力発電所事故の影響を受けて、同月15日以降、仮役場が同県内の二本松市に設置され、多くの住民が移動・避難した。避難民と避難所は他にも散在している。2017年3月31日に一部の全域避難指示は解除されたが、2020年2月までは「帰還困難地域」が町内の大半を占め、町内の居住人口は事故前より大幅に減少している。

 

Namie (浪江町, Namie-machi) is a town located in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. 

The town was evacuated as a result of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster-being directly downwind from the power plant-and was within the exclusion zone set up in response to the disaster. Following ongoing clean-up efforts, Namie's business district and town hall have reopened, but access to more heavily contaminated western parts of the town remains restricted.

Voluntary Commitments

The organization has no registered commitments.

The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
