How to Protect Children's Lives

More than 700 nurseries were damaged in the Great East Japan Earthquake, but there were few infant fatalities. Even so, lawsuits have laid the blame for them on the nurseries. Reviewing the case of the one known as the “Miracle Nursery” because all 54 of the children in its care survived from the tsunami, the program reveals it had been implementing regular safety measures, including monthly evacuation drills and disaster manual updates. We see its new manual being prepared based on lessons learned from 3.11 and hear about regional initiatives to protect children.
