Introducing the Fudai Way Project
Rural Japan is facing a number of challenges: rapidly aging populations, declining birthrate, social isolation and thousands of vacant houses resulting in communities that are disappearing. Simultaneously, many young people struggle with a low sense of self and lack of purpose.
To address these challenges, we are using a hyper-local x global synergy - “Super Glocal” to involve local residents, the village mayor, returning entrepreneurs, and international collaborators.
We are building a prototype ecosystem in Fudai Village (Iwate Prefecture, population ~2,500), consisting of the following:
A community café (AWAI) as a gathering space for locals and newcomers.
A guesthouse (KP Coliving House) for short and mid-term stays.
A co-creation program for digital nomads, students, and young professionals to engage with local life.
Utilization of vacant houses for social and educational initiatives.
