1. What is the "Creating a Future of Community Coexistence from OSAKA" project?

Aiming to achieve the theme of the Expo, "Designing a Future Society Where Life Shines," and to realize a "community-inclusive society" in Osaka where everyone, including children, the elderly, and people with disabilities, can live vibrantly and thrive, this project will feature presentations by various organizations at Osaka Week (*), including cutting-edge initiatives in the welfare field, in order to boost the motivation of those currently engaged in local activities, as well as to promote co-creation with companies and revitalize local activities, and spread this throughout the prefecture as a legacy of the Expo.

 

*Osaka Prefecture and 43 municipalities within the prefecture will join forces to hold an event at the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo.
