Science Castle 2019 Kyushu Conference

Theme: "Let's learn more about the region and find new values."

The theme of the Kyushu conference is "Let's learn deeply about the region and find new values. Humanity faces global-scale challenges such as the collapse of ecosystems, depletion of natural resources, and the occurrence of abnormal weather. In addition, if we look at Japan as a region, we face issues such as regional decline and an aging society with a declining birthrate. The world is a collection of regions. We believe that learning about and solving the issues of the regions around us is necessary to solve global-scale issues, and at the same time, rediscovering value from natural resources and technologies unique to the region is an important key to solving these issues. At the Kyushu Congress, we will create a venue that will serve as the first step toward deepening our knowledge of the region through research and the creation of research that will help solve global issues.
