Foreword for the ISDR-ICL Landslide Inter-
active Teaching Tools
Disasters induced by natural hazards annually affect millions of people.
Disasters may pose a serious threat to health, cultures, and development
prospects. Disasters have been increasing in this period of climate change,
urbanization,andoverpopulation.Predictionsarethatseveraltypesofevents
arising from natural hazards will become more frequent; thus, impacts of
resulting disasters could become more devastating. Among these potentially
catastrophic hazards are landslides.
Twomajormilestones,2030AgendaforSustainableDevelopmentandthe
ParisAgreementonclimatechange,wereadoptedin2015.Thesameyearin
Sendai, Japan, Member States adopted the Sendai Framework for Disaster
Risk Reduction 2015–2030. The Framework aims of assessing the global
progressondisasterriskreduction,identifyingitspriorityactions,andsetting
the role of stakeholders.

Risk Reduction—International Consortium on Landslides Sendai Partner-
ships 2015–2025 (ISDR-ICL Sendai Partnerships).
The International Consortium on Landslides, ICL, actively supported by
UNESCO, is a vital organization for landslide disaster risk reduction.
Through international scientific communities, it conducts advanced research
and builds capacities in landslide prevention and mitigation.
In line with the objectives of Sendai Partnership, ISDR-ICL is launching
the Landslide Interactive Teaching Tools (LITT). This interactive
open-access teaching toolkit aims to help academia, leading engineers, and
practitioners to formulate necessary capacities and technical training for
landslidedisasterriskreduction.Thesetoftoolsincludesmethodologiesand
casestudiesonhowtomap,monitor,andforecastsuchextremeevents.This
open-access teaching tool could be periodically revised and updated by the
community of users based on the reviews, comments, and new research
findings.
Nowadays, more than ever, we need stronger scientific cooperation and
broaderresultdissemination.Inthisspirit,Ithankallthecontributorstothis
initiative and I pledge UNESCO’s continuing support to deepening part-
nerships for education and resilience in societies across the world.

Aim
The International Consortium on Landslides (ICL) proposed the ISDR-ICL
Sendai Partnerships 2015–2025 for global promotion of understanding and
reducing landslide disaster risk at a session of “Underlying risk factors”
of the3rd WCDRR onthe morningof 16 March 2015.The partnership was
proposed as a voluntary commitment to the World Conference on Disaster
RiskReduction,Sendai,Japan,2015,andalsoastoolsforimplementingand
monitoring the Post-2015 Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and the
Sustainable Development Goals. It was approved and signed by 16 global
stakeholders in the afternoon of the same day in Sendai, Japan, and the
Secretary-General Mr. Petteri Taalas of the World Meteorological Organi-
zation (WMO) signed it on 16 April 2016.
The Sendai partnerships acknowledge that
(cid:129) At a higher level, social and financial investment is vital for under-
standing and reducing landslide disaster risk, in particular social and
institutional vulnerability, through coordination of policies, planning,
research, capacity development, and the production of publications and
tools that are accessible, available free of charge and are easy to use for
everyone in both developing and developed countries.
Landslide science and technologies have continuously been developed to
bemorereliable,preciseorcost-effectiveforlandslidedisasterriskreduction
over the world. However, this scientific and technological progress has not
been shared equally over the world. The gap between the available level of
science and technologies and the practical use of those in many countries,
regions and communities is very wide. To fill this gap, ICL has created
Landslide Interactive Teaching Tools, which are always updated and con-
tinuously improved, based on responses from users and lessons learned
duringtheirapplication.Alltextbooksgraduallybecomeoutdated.Toavoid
this problem, ICL plans to upload the latest teaching tools in the WEB of
Teaching Tools and print text tools periodically.

Landslide Dynamics
A landslide is a downslope movement of rock, soil or both. Landslide
disastersarecausedbyexposuretohazardousmotionsofsoilandrockthat
threaten vulnerable human settlement in mountains, cities, coasts, and
islands, as stated in the Sendai Partnerships. Understanding “Landslide
dynamics” is the very basis of landslide disaster risk reduction.
Organizations Contributing Teaching Tools
Each teaching tool will be submitted by the teaching tool contributing
organization as shown in the list of contributing organizations. Each
organization has its own Teaching Tool Identifying Number consisting of
telephone number of the country and the registered number within the
country. The involvement of organization as well as individual researcher is
adopted to keep quality and updating of each tool.
Outline
The teaching tools are classified in two fundamentals for Landslide
Dynamics and four major parts of tools.
Thepartnumberisincludedineachteachingtoolidentifier.Eachparthas
3–5 subparts.
Due to the requirement of book publication structure, the subparts do not
appear in the content because of two levels of publication structure. Two fun-
damentalsaresplitedinVol.1andVol.2asshownineachcontentofVol.1and
Vol. 2. Please refer the following subparts, fundamentals and their pages.

The teaching tools consist of three types of tools.
1. The first type is TXT-tools consisting of original texts with figures. The
first edition includes two volumes of books.
2. The second type is PPT-tools consisting of PowerPoint files and video
tools made for visual lectures.
3. The third type is PDF-tools consisting of already published reference
papers/reports, guidelines, and others.
Thesecondandthethirdtypesoftoolsaresupplementarytoolsofthetext
tools (text books).
Each teaching tool has its own identifier. The identifier of each tool
consists of three parts:
1. the number of the part of the tools in which it appears (Parts 1–4);
2. the country telephone code and an assigned unique number for each
contributing organization (for example 081-1 signifies Japan-ICL head-
quarters, and 081-3 signifies Japan—Erosion and Sediment Control
Department, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism);
3. the last part of the identifier is a consecutive number assigned to the
teaching tool by its contributing organization.
Call for Contribution to the Interactive Teaching Tools

newEditorialManagerforLandslideTeachingToolstopromotethecapacity
building for the contribution of new tools. The authors of teaching tools in
this publication are also requested to improve their contributed tooks and
contribute new tools for other people in the world landslide community.
