Today students enjoyed a briefing from an Akita prefecture official who was one of the earliest proponents of green tourism as a way to help sustain rural communities. I can’t think of a better setting for this discussion!

On their first day in Semboku, students pursuing research on rural sustainability with the support of a Luce Foundation LIASE grant, met with Semboku mayor Mitsuhiro Kadowaki. He has been instrumental in pursuing new avenues for sustaining Semboku. @Beloit_College @HLuceFdn
