2024 is the start of a new school year and the climate is changing rapidly. Are you having fun?
We recently held a “Yamaguchi/Shimonoseki training camp”.
We held a one-night, two-day (5/18-5/19) training camp in Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture.
Active people from a wide range of generations, from 18 years old to adults, gathered from all over the country!
On the first day, we visited Shimonoseki City Aquarium Kaikyokan.
We saw an exhibition of pufferfish, which boasts the largest number of species in the world, and a performance of sea lions and dolphins.
Based on educational considerations, the museum set up a “lifestyle exhibition” and exhibited the natural habits and actions of animals.

Mr. Oshima, who used to be a member of Youth Eco, gave us an introductory tour.
There was also a space where you could actually touch and experience the products.
There is also a “Humboldt Penguin Special Reserve” where you can see Humboldt penguins in their wild state.
It seems that the sea creatures that the zookeepers have actually captured are on display. At this booth, it seems that each zookeeper displays what they want to display. Also, it seems that the introduction panels were created by individuals, so they were unique and easy to read.
The photo on the left is an actual exhibit created by Mr. Oshima.
We stayed one night in a log house at Akiyoshidai Family Travel Village. The area was surrounded by forests, so there were insects on my bed, but the air was fresh and I was able to spend a comfortable time there.

On the second day, we visited Akiyoshido.
Akiyoshido is a national park that has been certified by the Ministry of the Environment as a “wetland of high importance from the perspective of biodiversity.”

We had lunch at Shisan Udon Yamaguchi Yuda branch.
I wasn’t able to take a photo of the large sign at the entrance of the store, but it seems that they are conducting the “SUKESAN SDGs project” with the aim of creating a sustainable society!
I went to watch the soccer team where Mr. Saito, who is still active with Youth Eco, works.
It seems that Renofa Yamaguchi FC is also involved in environmental activities!

Hello everyone.
On Saturday, March 2, “Tsunagari Marche” was held at the Cooperative Station Chuo in Chuo-ku, Tokyo.
There are many people working to improve people’s lives through welfare, art, childcare, community development, and other activities.The Marche that the Foundation opened this time was an event that created a match between such activities and people who want to start social contribution activities and organizations that want to find partners.This allowed us to further expand the “horizontal connections” that the foundation has set forth. More than 30 NPOs, communities, and companies exhibited at this year’s Marche, introducing their activities and soliciting various applications.

The first Youth Econet exchange meeting was held on October 19th! The guest speakers were Professor Ryoichi Yamamoto, Professor Emeritus of the University of Tokyo, and Mr. Tomoaki Nishihara, who introduced their books and told us various stories.
Since this is only the first time, the number of Youth and the number of observers are almost the same. As a result, it was difficult for the youth to speak up in the discussion, but we will try to make it easier for them to interact next time.
This time, we held an exchange meeting at the Bachelor’s Hall. We listened to Dr. Yamamoto’s lecture and had a light dinner while listening to Mr. Nishihara’s talk and having a discussion. This time, we mainly discussed the world’s stance on environmental issues and Japan’s attitude toward environmental problems.
This is only the first exchange meeting, so I hope to increase the number of people, themes, and topics in the future!
まだまだ交流会も第一回目だけなので、これからもっと人もテーマも話題も増やしていけたらと思います！
It’s Yasu! The other day, I went to Eco Pro 2019!
EcoPro is an exhibition held for all stakeholders with the aim of solving environmental and social issues. At EcoPro, there are many events that can be enjoyed by everyone from small children to adults, and you can enjoy learning about environmental and social issues and corporate efforts to address them. I was impressed by the fact that each company is focusing on solving environmental and social issues, and that they are trying to solve environmental and social issues while growing steadily.
In addition, at each company’s booth, if you participated in quizzes and questionnaires, you could receive luxurious prizes! The photos show the prizes we received in one day. (The red cat and purple masking tape were purchased by myself, but other than that, it’s free!) )
This year’s EcoPro has come to an end, but don’t worry! EcoPro will be held again next year! EcoPro 2020 will be held on 11/26 (Thu) ~ 11/28 (Sat). This is an event that can be enjoyed by both those who are interested in environmental issues and those who are not, so please visit and use it as an opportunity to think carefully about the environment.
It’s Yukki!
Today, we held a Youth Econet Committee meeting at the Bachelor’s Hall!
We decided on the committee members who would be in charge of each of them based on their areas of interest. We also confirmed the schedule of future events. I wonder where I will see you all next year…!
We are planning an opportunity to interact with them again! Please look forward to more information ^^
Nice to meet you, I’m De Niro!
On February 9th, the second meeting of the Youth Econet Committee was held!
Several reassuring members joined the group, and one by one, they introduced themselves and decided which committee members would be in charge. I have a feeling that we will be able to exchange information in a wide range of fields, from forests, oceans, regional development to materials research! Exciting!
At the same time, it became clear that there is still room for debate on how to conduct public relations, and the real work as a team is about to begin!
