I'm Shimizu, a member of the Alece Takaoka!
On Wednesday, February 22, 2023, we went to the Japan Foundation's Global Citizen Award ceremony with Mrs. Aoki, president of Alece Takaoka.
I was very nervous, as I had to give an award speech at the prestigious ceremony in the presence of Her Imperial Highness Princess Takamado.
It was a great experience to meet so many people and hear so many stories at the reception.
The NPO Peace Culture Village and NPO Community Support Wakasa, who also received the Global Citizen Award, are also running wonderful activities, as Alece, we learned and gained a lot from their stories.
Once again, thank you very much for this prestigious award.
I would also like to thank everyone who has supported and collaborated with Alece so far.
I would like to express my deepest gratitude.
＊＊The following is a comment from Aoki Yuka, representative director of Alece Takaoka＊＊
Alece Takaoka is honored to receive the prestigious "Global Citizenship Award" from the Japan Foundation. As Alece has been working with the keyword "citizenship education", it is very important for us to receive an award with the name "global citizen".
Many people came to the awards ceremony to celebrate Alece's award, and we were very happy to be able to share this joy with everyone we know and have walked with along this long road. We also met many new people during the awards ceremony, which was a very valuable experience.
Once again, I would like to thank all the children and parents with foreign roots in the region, everyone involved in Alece, the many organizations and individuals who supported Alece activities and all the local people who took part in Alece activities.
Thank you for being part of our history.
Alece Takaoka will continue to work for the future of the region and the world, together with a diverse range of "we global citizens".
We hope that the award will be an opportunity to expand the circle of "We Global Citizens" through Alece Takaoka's activities.
NPO Alece Takaoka Yuka Aoki
