Introduction

Many of you may have heard the phrase “Our children are our greatest treasure.” However, in today's Japan, there are many social issues involving children, such as child poverty, child abuse, and educational gap. And many adults and children are working together to improve these situations.

Teenagers, YOU are the ones who will create the future of this society.
