Students Go on Air




Hospitality & Tourism College students were on TV on Oct 29.
We were filmed for a special program called “News from a Good Country”.
We help the “Shunran no sato” project in Ishikawa prefecture where the tourists can experience rice planting, charcoal making and stay in farmhouse bed and breakfast. This agritourism has been receiving attention, and has been selected as one of the finalists of the BBC World Challenge, a much-loved sustainable development show that has been held by the BBC since 2005. I believe our desire to re-build the farm and village, which young people now want to come back to visit, is appreciated globally.
