Akune City, Kagoshima Prefecture, has started accepting donations on Furunavi for a crowdfunding project aimed at sustainable development of the local economy.

https://fcf.furunavi.jp/Project/Detail?projectid=472) 《Summary of support》
Akune City is no exception to the problem of population decline faced by rural areas across the country.
The impact of the five-year population decline from 2016 to 2020 is estimated to be approximately 2.9 billion yen, and the impact on the local economy is enormous.
Akune City aims to reduce the impact of population decline on the local economy and achieve sustainable development of the local economy by expanding the number of people interacting through tourism that takes advantage of food and nature. We are proceeding with various initiatives.
In this project, we will develop an auto campground that can accommodate small group trips due to the new lifestyle following the spread of the new coronavirus infection, and will work towards sustainable development of the local economy.
