Project” (hereinafter referred to as Naka Pro) will be held. Junior High School is an activity where current university students (University of Hyogo, Kobe University, etc.) serve as instructors, and junior high school students engage in hands-on wheelchair learning. The aim is for junior high school students to gain an “realization” through real-life experience that the city in which they normally live is inconvenient for wheelchair users. In the wheelchair experience study, junior high school students are divided into several groups and walk around the town around their junior high school in wheelchairs. Each group will have one university student as their instructor. By being close in age to the university students who are the instructors, and by having one university student in each small group, we create an environment where it is easy to communicate proactively. Our first initiative in collaboration with a local company! So far, Naka-Pro has been held at a total of five schools, including Kobe City Sumiyoshi Junior High School and Nada Junior High School. Up until now, the event has been held using donations and subsidies, but it will now be held with local companies as sponsors. In parallel with the wheelchair experience learning, we will also hold workshops in collaboration with local sponsoring companies, providing an opportunity to interact with local people and deepen their understanding of the region. Collaboration with the government, various organizations, and regions! In addition, Naka-Pro has received full cooperation from the Disability Welfare Division of the Kobe City Welfare Bureau, and the Kobe City Ueno Junior High School event will be held at Hyogo SDGsWEEK ” (Hyogo Prefecture) (*1). Chu-Pro will be developed as a community-integrated project involving junior high school students, university students, local businesses, and the government, with wheelchair experience learning at its core.
