For an evacuation plan from a nuclear power plant accident to be effective, it is necessary to change the local community and residents' awareness where damage is expected. Through continuous survey research on evacuees from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, this study has clarified the difficulties during evacuation, the situation of evacuees that has become more complex and diverse with the passage of time, and the problems of isolation and latent evacuees with the prolonged evacuation. In addition, this study suggests that the solution to the problem lies in overcoming the self-responsibility of the victims and reconnecting them with each other and with non-affected people.
