Outline of the 15th National University Consortium Research Exchange Forum

theme: “Empowerment of Students and Local Communities through University Collaboration”
~Aiming for the development of the future community~
Purpose of the Tournament: As the environment surrounding higher education in Japan becomes increasingly severe, the development of an environment in which students can truly concentrate on their studies and support for student life are one of the important issues common to higher education institutions. The Campus Consortium Hakodate (CCH) was established in 2006 with the aim of developing such joint projects, and in 2009 held the 6th National University Consortium Research Exchange Forum. Under the slogan of “Nurturing truly educated people” who possess a wide range of knowledge, the ability to make appropriate judgments, a sense of social justice, and the courage to believe in the truth, he proposed a way of urban development by young people with cosmopolitan “human power.”
In holding the 15th National University Consortium Research Exchange Forum, the theme of the conference was “empowerment” of young people and local residents through collaboration with higher education. Empowerment is a concept that refers to the development and empowerment of the latent abilities of human beings and society, and in Japan, where the disparity between the family economy and education is widening, higher education is required to strengthen the empowerment function to fully develop the talents of all young people and nurture them as human beings expected by the future society.
To date, the University Consortium has embarked on a variety of joint projects based on a wide range of collaborations with multiple universities, companies, and organizations. At this forum, we would like to share experiences on strategies to fully develop the potential of students and local residents, to create a prosperous and diverse future community, and to look ahead to the consortium projects that are considered promising in the future.
