Yokitano Festival
[300,000 yen]
Non-profit organization Yokitano Matsuri
[Bukkyo University]
Kamigyo Ward While the weakening of connections in the community is lamented, the Yo Kitano Festival will be held on August 16 at Kitano Tenmangu Shrine as an opportunity to create connections. By casually communicating with people you meet at the festival, we aim to create a city where people can connect with each other and be full of smiles and energy.
Manufacturing and Kotozukuri Renaissance Mr./Ms. Project
[300,000 yen]
Kyoto University of Art and Design
Modern Industrial Heritage Art Revitalization Project “Makadori V.”
[Kyoto University of Art and Design]
Higashiyama District We aim to contribute to the transmission and development of Higashiyama’s culture and traditional industries by picking up the voices of the craftsmen who are responsible for various local industries in Higashiyama Ward, passing on the skills and wisdom of the residents to be passed on, and the unique culture and customs of Japan to the next generation.
Miyako Light
[200,000 yen]
Miyako Light Executive Committee
[Kyoto Seika University, Kyoto University of Art and Design, Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto University of Education]
Kamigyo Ward Set in a townhouse, which is a traditional building in Kyoto, the lighting expresses the “lights of life” and illuminates the street with beautiful light in the form of a grid. By incorporating a new perspective of “learning” and holding workshops on lighting and machiya architecture by students and residents, we aim to create a richer “city light”.
Arashiyama and Tanabata Cultural Town Development
[300,000 yen]
Arashiyama Shopping Street
[Kyoto Saga University of Arts]
Ukyo Ward With the aim of inheriting and developing the traditional events of Tanabata, which are becoming less and fewer, the region will work together to create more attractive cityscapes and Tanabata projects that tourists can easily participate in by collaborating with initiatives centered on design at art universities.
Aiming to establish voluntary disaster prevention ~The first step in disaster prevention for children~
[300,000 yen]
Kyoto Tachibana University
Emergency Rescue Study Group -TURF-
[Kyoto Tachibana University]
Yamashina Ward In addition to revising the current “hazard map,” we will further raise awareness of disaster prevention, mainly in the Otaku School District, by developing a project for preschool children to acquire the primary disaster response behavior of “protecting one’s own body.”
Operation to turn the park into a “naughty plaza” created by everyone
[300,000 yen]
Umezu Town Development Committee
[Ritsumeikan University]
Ukyo Ward In the Uchiguchi Water Park, we will create a “naughty plaza (adventure playground)” that aims for both parents and children to grow strong while interacting with the natural environment and playing with their own ingenuity. In addition, we aim to provide an opportunity for young parents to participate in community activities.
Omiya Disaster Prevention and Welfare Community Development Promotion Project
[300,000 yen]
Omiya Disaster Prevention and Welfare Community Development Support Team
[Bukkyo University]
Kita-ku Encourage students living in the community to be actively involved in the Omiya School District’s “Registration System for Persons Requiring Special Care in the Event of a Disaster” and operate a “children’s playground” by students in comprehensive disaster drills. In addition, in the event of a disaster, we will implement a project to keep the most important photos of the family.

[300,000 yen]
Kyoto University of Art and Design
Center for Arts and Liberal Arts Monday Project
[Kyoto University of Art and Design]
Kita-ku In addition to collaborating with local people, including elementary school children, to create Aoi Nebuta with the motif of Futaba Aoi, we will promote the revitalization of the community by exhibiting it at the Kangetsu Festival at Kamigamo Shrine, and will lead to the creation of a new festival through collaboration between the university, the shrine, and the community.

Heisei 23 Certified Business Report Meeting

《Debriefing Session》
The 23rd Gakumachi Collaboration Certification Project Report Meeting and the 24th Business Recruitment Briefing Session were held on Saturday, April 7, 2012 at Campus Plaza Kyoto.
On the day of the event, not only students and university officials, city officials, but also the general public attended, and activity reports were given by eight organizations adopted in the Heisei 23 academic year.
In the process of planning and operating various initiatives in the community, we have faced many challenges, and I believe that the results of the projects will be a great asset for both the students and the community, and will be able to be utilized in future activities.
We hope that such efforts will not be one-off, but will be carried out continuously, creating new businesses, and revitalizing the cycle in each ward of Kyoto City!
