AB - This study provids a basic resource for forest fire prevention education by analyzing through a survey on the awareness of local residents of Samcheok city, Gangwon province, regarding the need for forest fire prevention education, and the results of the study are as the following. First of all, in terms of the need for forest fire prevention safety checks, 55 respondents(61%) answered “Not at all”, “Not so much”, “So-so”, which indicated that the awareness of the local residents is low and therefore education is needed. Secondly, in terms of whether being aware of forest fire fighting methods in case of a forest fire, seeing that 68 people responded “So-so” and “Not at all” which makes up 75%, it was researched that the local residents’ awareness on forest fire fighting methods is low. Therefore, education on how to fight forest fires is needed. Thirdly, the answers to the question on whether directly fighting forest fires that occur near one’s home, 44 replied “Very much(49%)” and 30 replied “Yes(32%)” which makes up a total of 81%(74 respondents) that answered they will fight the fire in person. Therefore, when selecting a forest fire prevention education program, there is a need to reflect specific contents on forest fire fighting methods. Fourthly, regarding the question asking if whether one knows how to evacuate in case of a forest fire, 20 people answered “Very much” and “Yes” making up 21%. This means that only 1/5 of the respondents are capable of carrying out the proper response measures in case of a forest fire, and so a forest fire evacuation training in accordance with each age group is needed. Fifthly, when designing a forest fire prevention education program for Samcheok in the future, the local residents' opinions regarding practical helpful contents such as forest fire fighting methods, evacuation methods in case of forest fires, evacuation locations, first aid for burns, how to use fire extinguishers, forest fire related laws should be reflected. Sixthly, when selecting trainees for future Samcheok forest fire education, not only government employees in charge of forest fires, forest rangers, and forest fire fighters, but also trainees should be expanded in a long-term perspective, and local residents(farmers, pre-school children, elementary/middle/high school students) should be included to manage and promote a continuous education process.
