摘要

近几年来,自然灾害的发生率呈大幅上升趋势,亚洲是地震、海啸、洪水、山体滑坡等灾害发生率最高的地区之一。尼泊尔移民在日本的人数正在急剧增加,因此本研究的目的是确定其中的备灾知识、态度和实践(KAP)。使用结构化问卷,进行双变量和多变量逻辑回归分析,以确定知识、态度和实践的决定因素。共有404名尼泊尔人参与了这项研究,我们发现尼泊尔移民的自然灾害防备水平较低。我们还指出,日语是尼泊尔人寻求正确备灾信息的最大障碍。因此,鉴于移民人口的不断增长,日本政府应该考虑制定政策,将尼泊尔语的自然灾害相关信息纳入其官方网站,以提高其防灾KAP。

Disaster Preparedness among Nepalese Residing in Japan: a Mini-Review
The rate of natural disasters has shown prolific increment in last few years with Asia being one of the regions with highest occurrence of disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, landslides and so on. Nepalese immigrants are highly increasing in Japan hence the objective of this study was to identify the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) of disaster preparedness among them. A structured questionnaire was used and bivariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the determinants of knowledge, attitude and practice. Total of 404 Nepalese participated in this study and we identified that Nepalese immigrants has lower practice of natural disaster preparedness. We also identified that Japanese language is the biggest barrier for Nepalese to seek correct information on disaster preparedness. Thus, Japan government in light of growing immigrant population should think about policies to include information related to natural disasters in Nepali language into their official websites in order to increase their KAP on disaster preparedness.
