7/4 and 7/11 Regional Collaborative Creation Project
Students were visited by members of the following collaborating organizations: Peace, Toyoake City Hall (Childcare Division/Childcare Support Division), Toyoake City Hall (Coexistence Society Division), Toyoake International Association and Sugi Holdings.
The students in each group gave their ideas to the collaborating organisations on how to improve various aspects of life in the Toyoake area with regards to the elderly, childcare and coexistence. The feedback they received was invaluable in order to fine-tune their ideas and give each group a clear picture of how each of their activities will benefit the local community.
In Toyoake City, people from various backgrounds, such as elderly citizens, foreign citizens, people with disabilities, people raising children, and LGBTQ+, live together. Seijo High School aims to create a “coexistence society” where Toyoake citizens of all backgrounds can understand each other, and in order to realize this, we would like to discover local issues and work toward solving them.
Therefore, students who choose the Korea/Taiwan course as their study trip destination will carry out a “Regional Collaborative Creation Project.” In order to improve the solutions to local issues that they have come up with, we would like the students to create effective enlightenment materials with the help of collaborating organizations that are close to Toyoake citizens on a daily basis through this field-specific council.
Students reflected on the content of the field-specific conference and revised the content in addition to deciding on the awareness-raising materials they will work on and think about future plans.
Students will actually create something that will be the first step towards solving local issues and will present it to the collaborating organizations and third graders. The ideal situation is for the collaborating organizations to take home the things and ideas they presented and actually use them.
