On Monday, February 10, Osaka University and other 12 national university corporations in the Kinki region signed an agreement of cooperation among national university corporations in the Kinki region in the event of a large-scale disaster.

The 13 universities include Shiga University, Shiga University of Medical Science, Kyoto University, Kyoto University of Education, Kyoto Institute of Technology, Osaka University, Osaka Kyoiku University, Hyogo University of Teacher Education, Kobe University, Nara University of Education, Nara Women's University, Wakayama University, and Nara Institute of Science and Technology.
