Survey on Citizens’ Experiences

As part of the “Future Kyoto Creation Research Project” jointly implemented by the University Consortium Kyoto and Kyoto City, we conduct a detailed analysis of the results of the “Survey on Citizens’ Lives” and compile a report.
Since the results of the “Survey on Citizens’ Experiences in Citizens’ Lives” are a useful source of information that can be used to grasp the awareness and needs of citizens, we believe that they are very effective as basic materials for surveys and research of the “Future Kyoto Creative Research Project,” and we are conducting detailed analysis. This report will be of interest not only to the survey and research of the “Future Kyoto Creation Research Project,” but also to Kyoto City officials, students, Mr./Ms., and those who are engaged in community development activities.
