~About Wakayama Dream Day 2024 Executive Committee~ The Wakayama Dream Day 2024 Executive Committee is working towards a world where people can freely enjoy their leisure time without worrying about their characteristics or attributes. Since 2017, the predecessor, “Dream Night at the Zoo” has been held by Adventure World (HOURS Co., Ltd.). However, because we want more people to be involved, we have established the “Wakayama Dream Day 2024 Executive Committee” with companies and organizations from all over the country, including Shirahama Town, who support the purpose of the event. . ~Goals aimed by the Wakayama Dream Day 2024 Executive Committee~ In contrast to the current situation where choices are limited depending on individual characteristics and attributes, such initiatives still provide “special moments.” However, I believe that someday, if this changes to “the norm” and we become a society in which each individual can live together as a member of society, regardless of their
characteristics or attributes, “disabilities” will cease to be disabilities. We will take action to create such a world. ~To everyone who agrees with the purpose of the event~ We have been able to hold this event with the support and cooperation of many people. We hope that this event will serve as an opportunity to create a society where all people can deepen their understanding of each other and help each other. We will continue our activities with the aim of creating a world where people can freely enjoy their leisure time without worrying about their characteristics or attributes.
