A Challenging Homecoming: Naraha Town, Fukushima

Mar 20, 2016·50m

The 2011 nuclear accident in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan forced 88,000 people to evacuate their homes. In September 2015, Naraha became the first town to welcome residents back. But officials trying to revive the community face numerous hurdles, such as rebuilding medical, welfare and commercial infrastructure. 4 months after the evacuation order was lifted, only 6% of residents had returned. The challenges facing one town highlight broader questions about the region's recovery from the disaster.
