Introduction

Toyako-cho is a town by Lake Toya in Hokkaido, Japan, and one of the most popular resort places in Japan. It has inexpensive conference facilities, many comfortable hotels with hot springs, and tourist facilities for international guests. In addition to these suitable conditions for conference places, there is an important reason for selecting Toyako-cho as the symposium place of SSRR2014. Mount Usu, an active volcano near Toyako-cho, has erupt four times since 1900 and repeatedly damaged the surrounding area. The latest eruption was in March, 2000. In order to remember the disaster and maintain consciousness of natural dangers as well as revitalize the local community, the community has been leading efforts into studies that can help in understanding how to reduce the effects of disasters as well as lifestyle changes for the region. Toyako-cho is the place representing for the basic philosophy of Hokkaido aboriginal (Ainu) "living together with ever-changing mother earth."
