- [Appointment] Member of the Kanazawa City DX Council
Kanazawa City DX Council. I continue to serve as a member.
"Match Box," a collaborative platform that connects local issues with those who can solve them, is a great idea.
At KMD, I teach a course called “Social Creation” where students work on implementing ideas to solve local issues—and students earn credits while learning in the field, which also helps the local community!
I think we tend to face a shortage of people who can solve these problems, so I’d like to expand this initiative to various regions and universities (*^^*)
