However, there are problems which should be solved such as aging and depopulation of the community these days, and locals haven't been able to find solutions for those problems. On the other hand, since more and more people from overseas visit for the Shikoku Ohenro Pilgrimage locals are trying to find new ways for "omotenashi (hospitality)". We would like to have more ideas to preserve our village with a long history and think of new ideas for hosting pilgrims, and start out with what we can do now.

In Miyoshi City, Iya area, many local region’s original cereal were made using steep land from long time ago. However, due to the declining birthrate and the aging of the population, three years ago, it was almost impossible for region to keep growing original cereal. Therefore, local volunteers gathered to inherit cultivation technology from seniors. Union members are 12 people in 50s to 80s. Mainly they work for cultivating of original cereals in the fields of their homes and communal fields. However, cultivation and harvesting of original cereals is a field of steep slopes, which is difficult to mechanize and is a time-consuming task for them. In order to protect the conservation of native species and the livelihood of Iya, the power of everyone is necessary.

Wer organisiert das Projekt?

This is the very first work camp organized by National Muroto Youth Outdoor Learning Center. This center is an educational facility for kids and youths, for any educational program including, but not limited to, outdoor programs with nature, seminar, training, camping, or team building. English education has been a problem in japan. And with the upcoming Olympic Games in 2020, Japanese government is attempting to improve the system for a better education. However, most Japanese are not able to speak English comfortably. One of the reasons is the lack of opportunity for communication with International people (especially in the countryside). This time, Muroto center and NICE are planning this camp to help provide children with the opportunity and environment to use English. Let’s have fun with children and ease the anxiety towards English!!
