Peace in Tahiti Study led to a more meaningful Life in Rural Hiroshima - Social Entrepreneur Nao Fukuoka
From an experience in Tahiti with PEACE BOAT to remodeling an old (giant) house to welcome guests, working with locals to promote tourism through sustainable seminars and natural farming and the local traditional entertainment KAGURA. Nao-san has found a more meaningful life by moving out to rural Hiroshima in Aki-Takata. Watch the video of the talk here on YouTube.
Nao tells us about her visits to Tahiti and research doing interviews with people there who were affected by the nuclear tests done there by France and how she wants to share their stories as well as those of the Hibakusha from Japan in Hiroshima and Nagasaki through her peace activism and studies. She is grateful for her experiences on Peace Boat to engage with others around the world on peace issues as well as inform how she wants to live a more simple, sustainable life in rural Japan.
Aki-Takata is famous for Kagura so we introduce it here shortly and talk about how Nao is working with others in the area to create more tourism and travel destination appeal to international and domestic visitors.
