This seminar, centered on the themes of 'Heart' and 'Life' in Tohoku, will be held in Osaka. Hosted by the Tohoku Tourism Promotion Organization, the event introduces the latest educational programs from the six prefectures of Tohoku and Niigata, focusing on disaster prevention, mitigation, and inquiry-based learning related to SDGs. It is designed as an information-gathering hub for educators, school officials, and travel agencies to plan high-quality learning experiences using Tohoku's regional resources.
The main highlight is the opportunity to directly learn about the unique educational content offered by each region in Tohoku. Rather than simple sightseeing, the seminar focuses on why learning in Tohoku is essential today, presenting programs on disaster prevention and regional inquiry-based learning. The second part of the event features a consultation and business matching session where attendees can communicate directly with prefectural representatives and local service providers to discuss specific details for school trips and educational travel planning.
The event will be held on Friday, September 4, 2026, from 13:00 to 16:00. Reception begins at 12:30.
Under the theme "Why Learn in Tohoku?", representatives from the six Tohoku prefectures and Niigata will present the latest educational programs, including disaster prevention/mitigation learning, SDGs programs, and regional subsidy systems.
Individual consultation sessions for school officials with prefectural representatives, and business matching sessions between travel agencies and local service providers.
The venue is Hotel Hanshin Osaka, located in central Osaka with excellent access. Please check the official website for detailed seating information and routes from the nearest station.
