Face-to-face exchanges with Japanese advocates of placemaking: rediscovering the value of rural Taiwan
Want to know how Japanese people successfully put the concept of "placemaking" into practice with a single magazine?
Have you ever wondered what kind of journey the food you eat every day has been through?
Have you ever hesitated over what you could actually contribute to your own hometown?
The Japan Food Communication movement uses "food" to genuinely convey the true face of primary industry and rural localities, turning producers into stars and restoring local vitality. It makes places of production become another hometown that people yearn for deep in their hearts.
From September 28 to 30 this year, editors-in-chief of Food Communication publications from across Japan will visit Taiwan again to share their experience and hold workshops!
Besides Tohoku Food Communication, you will see that Japan actually has so many fun Food Communication publications! From Nara, the ancient cultural capital, Fukuoka at the heart of Kyushu, and the fishing village of Saiki in Oita, they go to great lengths to deliver the ingredients they report on into readers' hands, all to let you know just how interesting and fun Japan's localities are!
On this visit to Taiwan, they will generously share their experience of making publications locally in Japan. The 9/30 workshop will use a "hackathon" format to lead participants in jointly developing an entirely new concept of Food Communication. With such a rare and valuable opportunity, why not sign up right away?
