As our risk communication activities after the Fukushima nuclear accident, we have conducted explanatory meetings on radiation risk and its influence on human health. We carried out the meetings to reduce anxiety and concerns about radiation risk among residents in Ibaraki and Fukushima prefectures. The meetings incorporate the residents needs, and have interactive two-way communication as long as possible. We show the opinions of the participants and the results of the questionnaire survey in the meetings.
