Holding of "The 3rd Presentation Contest”

The contest is now available on YouTube channel below.

As the second part of this event, "The 3rd Presentation Contest" was launched and young people with refugee roots who have been driving to create a multicultural society gave presentations on their experiences in Japan and on the thoughts they have gained through their activities.

Under the theme of "Living with Refugee Roots," the contest called for eight teams to apply, and five teams were selected for the final. All teams were nervous but gave excellent presentations.

The team that won the Grand Prix was "ICHIGO ICHIE" and the team presented about the "suffrage for second-generation refugees" and the struggles and feelings that current high school and university students from Myanmar experience in their daily lives.

In their comments after winning the Grand Prix, they said, "We are at a loss for words. We were happy to be able to present our thoughts and feelings in such an occasion. We were also happy to have had a precious time at the exchange party here, where we were able to receive various opinions from people we would not normally meet," with end up smiling naturally.
