Course description
 In rural area, for example, when trying to regional activation, what is the neck of projects? Probably the most obstructive factor would be the problem of the absence of local leader. They know what to do. But, in the depopulation and aging population, everyone has the utmost to maintain their lives, who will plan their projects, start projects while securing people, funds and places, and sustain projects? One of solutions would be “partnership”, which is the project constructed by collaboration and cooperation of diverse entities, inside and outside the region.
 In this lecture, we aim to grasp the current status and think about the way of “partnership” which is indispensable in regional revitalization, environmental conservation, natural resource management, etc. We introduce examples of domestic and foreign projects that governments, companies, NGOs / NPOs, communities, groups and individuals construct “partnership” and work on regional issues. After that, we point out their issues and problems, and discuss the desirable way of regional partnership. About specific lecture contents, this year we’d like to visit Harumi-cho shopping street and the Fuchu City Citizen Activity Center "Platz", and learn both practice and theory about collaborate with universities, shopping districts, companies, NPOs, administrative offices, etc. Finally, we’d like to share the results of fieldwork and discuss the overviews and problems.

Message from instructor(s)
“Partnership” by diverse entities has great potential not only for solving surface problems but also for creating society. It is a way that students can engage in society by constructing partnership. We hope that you take lectures while going to tackle the problem and imagining “partnership” concretely.
