Then, environmental hazards related to port activities are identified that facilitate to choose emergency exercise topics. Methods on exercise design and evaluation are developed for better understanding issues of communication through table-top and functional exercise. These methods have been applied for several case studies in Haiphong city, Vietnam (oil spill and fire accident at port, rescue at hospital, fire at chemical warehouse), and Kitakyushu city, Japan (medical service in earthquake). As results, communication structures among stakeholders are visualized and clearly defined in table-top excised. Use of time element for functional exercise provides quantitative evidences for capturing communication issues and providing clues for improvement. The research is expected to be useful material for emergency managers to enhance communication in emergency management}, school = {北九州市立大学}, title = {Enhancing communication among emergency responders by developing exercise programs in Vietnam}, year = {} }
