Disaster Prevention Initiatives

Keio University is promoting university-wide disaster prevention and mitigation initiatives to realize a "safe and secure place for learning." We are working to make our campuses earthquake-resistant, maintain stockpiles, and strengthen our information provision systems during disasters.

Conducting Disaster Drills

We regularly conduct disaster drills to ensure a prompt and appropriate response in the event of a disaster. We practically verify the operation of the headquarters for disaster control, initial response, and the flow of information transmission to identify and improve issues.

Maintenance of Disaster Prevention Facilities

We carry out planned maintenance and regular inspections of disaster prevention facilities. At the Mita Campus, we have ensured that the heat source equipment in the South Building can operate even during a disaster, aiming to maintain base functions in an emergency.

Awareness-Raising Activities

We conduct continuous awareness-raising activities aimed at improving the disaster prevention awareness of students, faculty, and staff. In addition to posting posters showing initial responses in all classrooms, we create and distribute video content to promote understanding. Furthermore, by setting up disaster prevention goods sections in the Co-op, we are creating an environment that encourages preparedness in daily life.
