The entire city is a campus Kyoto B&S Project, the city of learning, has been launched!

Kyoto City, University Consortium Kyoto, and JTB West Japan are collaborating to provide a new educational travel program, the Kyoto B&S Program, as a place for university students who serve as guides to develop their motivation to go on to universities and junior colleges in the Kyoto area, as well as opportunities for university students who serve as guides to tell themselves and Kyoto to junior high and high school students. At the same time, we will conduct research on the educational effects of this project.
