Before 3.11 in Rikuzentakata there are 24,000 people.
3.11 , 2,400 people was dead by Tsunami.
And the 1 kilometers land from sea was sunken by Earthquake.
Every sea that you can see in the picture is park with grass before 3.11.
This is the central of the city.
But there is nothing now (2011.11.18).
And now there are 15,000 people.
Many people , especially youth people , left from this city.
Because there are less job.
In this Dialog , there are 10 people from Rikuzentakata and 15 people from Tokyo.
Title is "the dialog of next generation leader".
We try to do 3 things.
1st is making hope in youth.
2nd is making seeds to solve for issues in this area.
3rd is making new relationship and leadership in youth people (and senior people).
We will held same dialog every month in next year.
So it is the first one at 12/18.
After making relationship from dialog we did 1 round Open Space dialog.
There were 5 topics.
"How to make a magazine everyone can share from Rikuzentakata"
"How to built new school for learning social skill and issue"
"How to held dialogs for people who are youth"
"The issue of Temporary house "
"How to grow this dialog for next time"
In check out circle , one youth from Rikuzentakata said he thought this dialog is more serious but he felt so good and he want to invite more youth people for next time.
I am so happy to hear this comment.
Next time is 2/5 , 2/26 , 3/26.
Thank you to read !
