To raise citizens’ disaster awareness, we developed a framework for disaster reduction activities that combines citizen science and participatory art in disaster reduction and developed digital tools to support these activities. The proposed activity framework consists of (1) conducting workshops to express disaster risk and disaster reduction behavior in artworks, (2) exhibiting the artworks on the internet, and (3) appreciating the artworks. Workshops were held with students and citizen participants to test the effectiveness of the digital tools.
