Figure and Table | Ethically Researching Health and Disaster: Lessons from over a Decade of Research since the 3.11 Disaster in Fukushima

Table 1. Lessons for Ethical Research Practice from the 3.11 Disaster in Fukushima.

Issues	Recommendations
Communities	Timely and meaningful feedback to research participants
Research fatigue in the local communities	Capacity building of researchers in communicating with communities and a more participatory approach
Researchers	Facilitate researchers’ understanding of the risk of vicarious trauma
Vicarious trauma among researchers	Facilitate the public’s understanding of the meaning of research
The disaster affected local researchers
Bridging issue	Recognize the resilience of people and communities in disaster recovery
Stigmatizing by positioning the disaster-affected population as vulnerable
