[held on 12/26! ] Recruiting participants for "Youth x NPO Exchange Meeting"!

Young people in Iwate Prefecture, would you like to create a place for activities outside of school and work?

For example, do you have such a problem?

▶I'm looking for a volunteer/internship destination for winter and spring vacations!
▶ I want to have an experience that leads to "gakuchika / self-promotion" for further education and employment!
▶ I'm interested in community development, but I don't know where to start …

As a place to solve such problems, we will hold a “youth x NPO matching exchange meeting”.

At the "youth x NPO matching exchange meeting", not only do we create connections between the young people at the venue and the NPOs, but also after the exchange meeting,
① After the exchange meeting, the secretariat will follow up between the applicants and the host organization !
②For those who wish to participate, we will assist the transportation expenses to the activity site !

Even those who are new to such a place are very welcome.
Of course, everyone who wants to be active is also welcome.

For details, please see the overview below.
