dc.description.abstractDue to the rapid growth, tourism in Japan has been receiving significant attention from the Japanese government and has been placed as a key policy. Japan is a country prone to several natural disasters like earthquake, typhoon, flood etc. In light of this vulnerability, the central government and local municipalities have worked towards evacuation planning to secure safety of foreign tourists. This study aims to develop suggestions for better regional tourism evacuation shelter planning targeting both Japanese and foreign tourists. The main research objectives are to understand 1) evacuation experience of Japanese during past disasters; 2) intended evacuation behaviour and preference of Japanese under Tokyo Metropolitan Earthquake scenario; and 3) impact of presence of foreign tourists on evacuation shelter choice of Japanese in case of an emergency. We conduct a local resident survey to identify the need of dedicated evacuation shelter planning as disaster preparedness for foreign tourists in Japan. End Proctoring-
