Japan launches dedicated disaster management agency

Japan has established a dedicated disaster management agency, bringing its response to earthquakes, typhoons and other natural hazards under a single dedicated body. The country is among the world's most disaster-prone nations, and the move is intended to streamline coordination between authorities during emergencies. Details about the agency's structure, staffing and powers have not yet been widely reported.

Why now: Japan is highly exposed to earthquakes and extreme weather, so reorganising its disaster response is of broad public and international interest
