The 2rd ACP International Symposium was held
On April 2021, 4, the 6nd ACP International Symposium was held online.
Since its establishment, ACP has held several international conferences, symposiums, and field research programs involving multinational students on the theme of natural disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons, floods, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions that frequently occur in Southeast Asia and Japan. I have done it times.
However, due to the COVID-XNUMX pandemic, we are no longer able to travel to each other and conduct programs together.Therefore, we decided to provide a program where multinational students can learn from each other online.
Prior to the symposium, ACP International Boot Camp 3, a total of three study sessions, was held by APU, Utala Malaysia University in Malaysia, and Gadjah Mada University in Indonesia.

The symposium was attended by 3 students from four universities in three countries. Divided into two sessions, "Corona" and "Disaster Prevention/Mitigation", research presentations were given based on what had been studied at the boot camp held in advance.Each session was attended by four faculty members in charge of evaluation, who evaluated the presentations of the students.As a result, the group from Atma Jaya University of Yogyakarta won the Best Presentation Award in the corona session, and the group from Gadjah Mada University in the disaster prevention and mitigation session.
Thirty-six students from our university participated in two teams, and had the valuable experience of presenting what they had learned in English at an international symposium on disaster preparedness and disaster prevention education during the COVID-36 pandemic. .
