Programme details
A three-part panel discussion will be held to present the efforts of small local cities as one role model to the world, together with diverse panelists, including the SDGs after 2030.
In the first session, the mayor of Sabae and members of the Friends of the United Nations, with whom the city collaborates, will take the stage and have a discussion with guests. Based on the background in which "women's empowerment" has taken root in Sabae City, discussion points will include topics such as the cycle of the three pillars of sustainability, economy, society, and environment, local efforts to create synergistic effects, as well as future endeavours.
The second session will be a discussion surrounding "Women's Empowerment and Manufacturing”, a project that our city is currently working on. Women who have been involved in this project and those who are active on the front lines of manufacturing in Sabae will take to the stage for a discussion focusing on the parallels between women's empowerment and the local industries.
The third session will feature members of the Sabae City Hall JK Division who embody the idea that women's empowerment leads to community empowerment. Ten years have passed since the Sabae City Hall JK Section project started in 2014, and we will be communicating to the world what these girls are thinking through their activities, what they want to do in the future, and the importance of community building and leadership from the perspective of the young people responsible for the future.
