Wakamono no Mikata
As part of the campaign called “Voice Action” initiated by Komei Youth, the project named “Wakamono-no-Mikata” (“Supporters of Youth” in English) was launched in Saitama Prefecture to make youth voices heard and reflected in the policiesmaking. We believe that empowering youth is a key to bringing creativity and innovation into the society since younger generation possess own their unique and fresh ideas.
Based on this belief, the project aims to collect a variety of answers mainly from teens to 30s to our questionnaire which consists of three simple questions related to livelihood, digitalization and innovation through which we carry out face-to-face dialogue with our friends, interviews on the streets and online survey. Since this March, we have received more than one hundred thousand voices, which are diverse, transformative and potential, but we think that the voices must be regarded as creative and innovative in the local, regional and international level so that they can be made the most use of in the policies making.
Therefore, we would like to celebrate this precious day with supporters of youth in order to communicate the message that youth is a key actor for developing creativity and innovation as much as possible. Using Twitter, we set up retweet campaign which asks participants to use hashtags such as #IAmCreative and make comments for empowering youth to be innovative and creative.
