On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Foundation, the University Consortium Kyoto has decided to expand the number of participants in the “Kyoto FD Executive School,” which is usually held for university executives, and to hold a grand lecture to commemorate the 20th anniversary.
In recent years, the role of university executives has become increasingly important in improving university education, and we hope that you will participate in this commemorative lecture as an opportunity to learn about the situation surrounding universities, not only for university executives but also for those who are not directly involved in university management.

Lecture Outline
| Thesis | “Toward the development of human resources with the ability to open up the future ~The next 20 years when universities and high schools will take on challenges together~” |
| Lecturer | Takayuki Shioze (Former Assistant Director, Industrial Technology Policy Division, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Associate Professor in charge of Technology History, Kyoto University Museum) |
| Overview | In the era of human resource mobility, where it is no longer the norm to work for 40 years, the skills required of human resources have changed significantly. The mere ability to memorize and accurately reproduce the wisdom of our ancestors is no longer sufficient. In such a society, where the answer is not known in the first place, and where the relationship between value and worthlessness is unstable and can change quickly, it is important to have an attitude toward “unknowingness.” There is a need for human resources who can identify their own strengths and weaknesses in response to changes in value and continue to relearn. In order to continue to support Japan, which is transitioning from a period of high economic growth to a period of maturity, we must first recognize our position as one of a society of 7 billion people with diverse cultures and values, which is clearly different from the era when only a few countries in Japan, the United States, and Europe led the country. It is the responsibility of the university-high school partnership to accept the diversity of human resources, cultures, and values that are truly necessary, and to produce human resources who can face unexplored social issues and turn the power of diverse specialists into breakthroughs. |
