This project is actively working for SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDGs 15 (Life on Land), organized together with a local environmental Non-profit organization (NPO) Akame no SATOYAMA wo Sodateru Kai (ASSK) since 1999. Since this area is close from big cities Osaka and Nagoya, there were plans to build a golf field and an incinerator, but local people stopped those plans by the movement called National Trust. They founded the group in 1996 to collect donations to buy and protect lands, to accept people who want to enjoy nature, to maintain forests, to create a pond for dragonflies, to host national corps meeting, etc. SATOYAMA needs to be maintained by humans for its biodiversity and water adjustment function.

PARTENAIRE

This project is actively working for SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDGs 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), organized together with the local group since 2019. This village has been welcoming ohenro (pilgrims) who visit 88 temples in Shikoku since long time ago. The pilgrims walk through this village before visiting Kakurin-ji temple; the 20th temple out of 88 temples of the Shikoku Ohenro Pilgrimage. However, there are problems which should be solved such as aging and depopulation of the community these days, and locals haven t been able to find solutions for those problems. On the other hand, since more and more people from overseas visit for the Shikoku Ohenro Pilgrimage locals are trying to find new ways for omotenashi (hospitality). Volunteers who have been working on the project have come up with ideas for the reuse of vacant and abandoned land. Local host Oi have finally decided that they can freely renovate and modify the vacant houses. Moreover, the site is in a good location, with mountains, a river and fields. It is up to the volunteers from now on to decide how to develop the project. The aim is for the volunteer members to clean up the abandoned houses and village landscape and transform it into a village that people will want to visit to take photos, as it used to be a village where people came and went since ancient times.

TRAVAIL

The Maasailand Project Kimuka is located in Kimuka village, on the leeward side of the Ngong Hills, one hour drive from Nairobi. The area is inhabited by the Maasai community and the project is headed by a Maasai Woman. The project aims to connect the local community with volunteers from all corners of the world at the heart of the Maasailand. The local people believe that the area can realize a substantial level of development through volunteer activities. The area is semi-arid with little rainfall, hence 80 of the population is categorized as living below the national poverty index. The area ds not have rivers but the main source of water is rainfall and boreholes. The Maasai people are known for their nomadic nature but most people in Kimuka dont move away from their land as they are now embracing education and development. The Maasai children need education and health care. Women are responsible in maintaining their homes. The Maasai community inhabits southern Kenya and Northern Tanzania. They are known for their hospitality, humility, and honesty. They are the best-known tribe internationally due to their unique culture, custom and it is the only tribe that lives near the animal parks.This program will enable volunteers to work with the local people and improve access to social services like children s education, women empowerment skills development and improvement of healthcare, etc. The project works directly with Kimuka Primary School which has over 3000 children and 17 staff, The Kimuka Girls High School which has 950 students and adds up as a rescue site for girls from early marriage, the women empowerment project for beadwork and bags making, sensitization programs for early pregnancies/ marriages and menstrual health, domestic animal health, etc. Medical activities will be incorporated soon. The work of the volunteers will complement the local community activities and in return, the volunteers will be exposed to real adventure and cultural learning.
