Team Work makes the dream work. Thank you to our awesome team of intern + volunteers, and our partners @codechrysalis & #SoseiPartners for making "Deep Dive: Regional Revitalization in #japan🇯🇵" a success! It’s a pretty magical thing to have 40 people, from totally different educational, professional, and personal backgrounds, come together to discuss and take on one specific challenge. In this case, we were fortunate to have @dennischia8787 tell us about the problems that rural Japan is facing (#地方創生), and why this issue is important to us all. There were so many awesome ideas that came from the brainstorm that followed: from setting up e-commerce platforms for local craftspeople, to creating the next Silicon Valley deep in the Japanese countryside. It was a really invigorating evening - so glad to see people connecting over meaningful discussions about important issues facing Japan and the wider world. A big shout out to everyone who made this possible :) #TeamWork #socialinnovationjapan #inaka #socialinnovation Photo Credits: @kaiseiokada
On Thursday, 120 people gathered in #Tokyo to cut the small talk and discuss the big things: life, death, and the concept of #Ikigai at #SocialInnovationJapan.
Thank you to our speaker, #EijiHanShimizu (producer of the award-winning #HappyDocumentary), for sharing his fascinating story and facilitating a rare opportunity for us to reflect on what really matters.
Thank you to everyone who was a part of this deep dive - especially our team of awesome #volunteers - for making it an unforgettable experience! #Mindfulness #Meditation #RealTalk #DeepDive
