In 2022, there were approximately 169.8 thousand voluntary disaster management organizations in Japan. Figures have continuously increased since 2014, when the number of voluntary disaster management organizations was at around 146.4 thousand. Since Japan is situated in an area where several tectonic plates meet, it is vulnerable to natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions.
