#43 -SDGs Action Workshop – March 20th – Satoyama / forest conservation activities
(tree planting, logging, firewood chopping)
As a part of the global SDGs initiative, Peace & Nature is working with people of various nationalities, companies, students, and local communities to conserve satoyama and forests by reclaiming fallow land and maintaining bamboo forests. On March 20th, we will hold a workshop on forest circulation (planting, cutting, and chopping wood) in the OZO-cho area of Kita-ku, Kobe City. The firewood will be provided to a local hot spring, which is an SDGs action for local recycling. We hope that you will be able to experience the SDGs satoyama and forest conservation initiatives while enjoying the countryside scenery away from your daily life. We look forward to your participation.
