“…Therefore, it took time to acquaint themselves with other residents who had lived there before the GEJET [ 35 ]. Challenges in building new relationships within new neighborhoods were also revealed [ 36 ]. A difference in the cultures between the inland and coastal areas also influenced social connections [ 37 ].…”

We explored the association between the motivation for and effects of cooking class participation in disaster-affected areas following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. We conducted questionnaire surveys in January and February 2020, and applied three Poisson regression models to a cross-sectional dataset of participants, analyzing three perceived participation effects: increase in new acquaintances and friends, increase in excursion opportunities, potential for gaining motivation, and a new sense of life purpose. We also applied the interaction term of motivation variables and usual eating patterns (eating alone or with others). We obtained 257 valid responses from 15 cooking venues. The interaction term for participants’ motivation and eating patterns was associated with their perceived participation effects. “Motivation for nutrition improvement × eating alone” was positively associated with an increase in new acquaintances and friends (IRR: 3.05, 95% CI, 1.22–7.64). “Motivation for increasing personal cooking repertoire × eating alone” was positively associated with increased excursion opportunities (IRR: 5.46, 95% CI, 1.41–21.20). In contrast, the interaction effect of “motivation of increasing nutrition improvement × eating alone” was negatively associated with increased excursion opportunities (IRR: 0.27, 95% CI, 0.12–0.69). The results show that the cooking class was effective, as residents’ participation improved their nutritional health support and increased their social relationships.

“…Prior research establishes that a societal connection or social capital is linked to increased community resilience [95][96][97][98][99][100][101][102]. It is important to maintain this societal inclusion with post-disaster management issues [103]. Temporary housing is the first step to providing normalcy and wellbeing for the affected community after a disaster [19,104].…”

Temporary housing plays a critical role in disaster response and recovery by providing a temporary home for displaced people before they return to their permanent residence. In recent years, temporary housing has faced three primary dilemmas related to design type, site selection, and cost. Significant contributions have been made in research and in practice to improve temporary housing management. However, gaps still exist in resolving the dilemmas, and a critical review and evaluation of current methods is needed to determine the path forward and identify priorities of future research. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of prior methods developed and applied towards temporary housing management and identifies future pathways for success in temporary housing research and implementation. The literature review reveals that temporary housing requires further research in proactive management, storage, sustainability, and community resilience to effectively enhance post-disaster temporary housing. This study finds that programs such as the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and the Sheltering and Temporary Essential Power (STEP) program provide methodologies which can benefit temporary housing implementation, designs, and modeling. In addition, circular economy thinking can enable the recyclability of temporary housing to reduce economic and environmental impacts.

“…within the group. Studies have assessed the impact of social capital in its various manifestations both theoretically (Norris et al, 2008;Aldrich and Meyer, 2015) and in catastrophic events such as Hurricane Katrina (Hawkins and Maurer, 2009), floods in Pakistan (Akbar and Aldrich, 2018), the Kobe earthquake (Yamamura, 2010), the Fukushima triple disaster (Aldrich, 2016;Ueda and Shaw, 2016;Ye and Aldrich, 2019;Goryoda et al, 2019), or when considering an aggregate of events (Shimada, 2015). On the other hand, social capital is also associated with social and political engagement, promoting collective action.…”
