Business Overview
Students from Kyoto, who transcend the boundaries of universities, form an executive committee and engage in daily activities with the aim of disseminating “Kyoto as a student city” to society, further revitalizing the Kyoto area, and creating new attractions in collaboration with the business community, the government, the local community, and the university.
After a variety of community exchange activities throughout the year, such as activities to disseminate the original creative odori “Kyoen Sodefure!” and regional cooperation events, a grand festival is held every October as the culmination of these activities.
The University Consortium Kyoto has set the goal of “student growth” in the daily activities of the Student Executive Committee, and supports “student independence” so that students can think and act on their own, and supports the students to make the most of what they have accumulated in the course of their activities for one year since the establishment of the Executive Committee in November every year.
FY2016 Regional Revitalization Project

The Kyoto Student Festival has a strong image of a festival centered on odori held in the Okazaki area every October, but in addition to this, we also carry out various activities on a daily basis, such as regional exchange and international exchange, with the aim of “disseminating the charm of Kyoto” and “revitalizing the region.” However, in order to further realize activities in line with these objectives, it is necessary to have a partner who can work hand in hand, not just the Kyoto Student Festival Executive Committee.
Therefore, we will recruit organizations (partners) that want to “enliven the community together with students” and “want to further convey the appeal of the community with the perspectives and power of students” and promote collaborative projects in a single year. However, the Kyoto Student Festival Executive Committee is also limited in terms of budget, time, and capacity, and it is expected that the number of organizations that will be rejected or adopted may be infinitely small. Despite this situation, we are looking forward to seeing organizations that can feel the significance of the “Student City Kyoto” created through the collaboration of industry, academia, and the public community, and apply to realize their goals.
