2) Wilderness Medical Associates Japan Special Course "Outdoor Emergency Method Using Climbing Equipment"
overview:
I would like to learn more about tools by learning live emergency knowledge that cannot be learned through books or the internet.
Terada Tatsuya (WMAJ Public Relations, WMAI Semi-Lead Instructor)
It's only natural that mountain tools are not something you can display at home and look at, but that's not necessarily fine as long as you can use them according to the manual. In the remote nature, people are hit by unexpected injuries, accidents, and natural disasters, and no one can help them. Survival in such a situation requires you to make full use of what is in your surroundings and get through it. In such cases, what can you do using the tools you have now? Knowing how to use a variety of tools to help outdoor tools not as simple tools but as "living partners" who can help you in any situation is beneficial, not only to prevent accidents that may result in accidents that may be lost, but also to manage the crisis in the event of a disaster that occurs on a daily basis.
This time, we asked Mr. Terada of Wilderness Medical Associates Japan, who is well-versed in emergency situations in the outdoors and in the event of a disaster, to give us a lecture on a special course focusing on how to use tools in the event of an emergency, based on the perspective of WFA Wilderness First Aid!
What is Wilderness Medical Associates Japan? (Go to the official website)
What is WFA Wilderness First Aid?
The "Outdoor and Disaster Emergency Act" is the emergency law that "connects life" even in situations where medical access is harsh or disaster-related.
Since its founding in 1981, WMA has continued to contribute on a global scale to the development of practical medicine in harsh environments and circumstances. We are rescue medicine specialists, researchers, experienced educators and advocates for healthcare in the Wilderness situation. As of 2019, it has been selected by over 10,000 people per year in over 30 countries on seven major continents around the world.
The official curriculum systematically summarizes the evaluation and treatment required under the Wildness situation (where it takes a long time to transfer to the medical system or receive the necessary procedures), as well as long follow-up and nursing, and thinking in harsh natural environments. This is a new first aid method in Japan, with a learning style that involves understanding theoretically through classroom learning and then learning through practical skills.
All participants will receive a YAMANOVA coffee drip bag
On the day, participants will receive one drip bag from the Yamanova coffee "Namaste Himalaya" project! In addition, we can accept limited-edition coffee beans, drip bag sales, and subscriptions.
What is the Yamanova Coffee "Namaste Himalaya" Project?
Enjoy organic and fair trade coffee from the foothills of the Himalayas in Nepal outdoors! A coffee project to spread to Japan through a subscription-based community with nature lovers. This organic coffee is harvested from a farm at the foot of the Himalayas in Nepal, not only satisfying your taste, but also contributing to solving environmental and social problems.
