Ten years ago, the government launched a regional development
initiative. Since then, various good examples have emerged
throughout Japan, but these examples have not spread widely
and have yet to change the declining population trend and the
concentration of people in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Therefore, now is a good time when regional communities
proactively combine their wisdom, discuss each other, and take
action to create “enjoyable” local communities toward the
realization of a hopeful and happy society. In this session,
we will introduce good examples from around the country
through panel discussion to launch the Regional Revitalization
2.0 initiatives for the next 10 years.
Reports
Officials from Toyama Prefecture, winner of the Prime
Minister's Award at the 4th Digiden Koshien (Local
Government Category), Sendai City, the Fukui MaaS Council, and
Toyota City, which were also prize winners, took to the stage
to discuss their organizations' cutting-edge efforts and
the direction and enthusiasm for future regional
revitalization.
The venue was nearly full, and many people were able to hear
about efforts in their local areas and future regional
revitalization, which helped to promote understanding of
regional revitalization and local revitalization.
Even after this program, the government will continue to
promote awareness through support for local governments and
discussions at various events, etc., in accordance with the
"Regional Revitalization 2.0 Basic Plan" approved by
the Cabinet on June 13, 2025, with the aim of realizing a
sustainable society where everyone can live happily, safely
and securely, whether in urban or rural areas, and "fun
rural areas" that are chosen by young people and women.
