[Participants Wanted!] FY2025 Climate YOUTH Conference

(Added December 25, 2025) The application deadline has been extended until 5:00 PM on Tuesday, January 13, 2026.

What is the Climate YOUTH Conference?

Due to climate change, various problems such as abnormal weather are occurring on Earth. To address these issues, it is necessary for everyone to take action themselves.
Among them, the younger generation, who will bear the future, will be most affected by the impacts of climate change. Therefore, in fiscal year 2024, the "Climate YOUTH Conference" was held, focusing on young people under their 20s from cities such as Hino and Fuchu, to discuss initiatives against climate change.

From fiscal year 2025, Inagi City will also participate, aiming to further concretize the quests (climate change measures undertaken together) raised at the previous meeting and create opportunities for young people to engage in activities themselves, in collaboration with young people from Hino City, Fuchu City, and Chofu City.
We are looking for participants to join us in carrying out the Quest for the Future.

What kind of activities will we do?

You will think about what you can do in response to climate change.
To that end, you will listen to lectures by people with deep knowledge of climate change and those who are actively engaged in related activities, deepening your understanding of climate change.
Through activities such as "seeing," "listening," "experiencing," and "exchanging opinions" regarding climate change, let's explore what you can do.

What are the benefits of participating?

・Participants range from high school to university students and come from the four cities of Fuchu, Hino, Chofu, and Inagi, so you can make friends outside of school!
・Since adults do not interfere with the opinions expressed, you can freely think and act with youth leadership!
・In the lectures, you can hear stories that are rarely covered in school classes!
・You can tour facilities that are usually off-limits!
・In the final session, participants will present the results of the year and be able to propose and communicate their ideas to adults!

As proof of participation in the activities, a "Certificate of Completion" will be awarded at the end of the final session.
It can also be used as a point of appeal for job hunting and university entrance exams.
