Post-Disaster Social Regeneration
Kamaishi, Japan

 




> Following the 11th March 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, Kamaishi has spent the last 9 years re-building their community, both in physical infrastructure, but also trying to recover a community that has been psychologically scarred by the disaster. Led by Idrees Rasouli and funded by Daiwa Anglo-Japanese Foundation, this is the report of a project that focused on the role of Design for Social Regeneration after Mass Disaster.
