On Sunday, October 1, the 1st Saitama Regional Conference on Lifelong Integrated Education under the theme "Lifelong Integrated Education: Education for People Living in the Global Society--Creating the New Values--"was held at the Saitama Hall.
Mrs. Masako Ito, Chairperson of the steering committee of this conference
who is in charge of the Saitama branch, related how she had always been
critical of the simple and modest lifestyle of her hardworking parents
in a society where priority was placed on economic value. Through her study
of Nomura lifelong integrated education, however, she came to realize that
her parents' lifestyle reflected the long-nurtured values of the Japanese
spirituality and came to appreciate that they had passed this spirituality
on to her.
Moreover, every time she witnessed a radical change in the awareness of individual members who ware learning with her at the branch, she felt convinced that a change in sense of value is what people need at this time. With a desire to share this learning with many people, she and branch members visited various places to encourage participation in the conference. As a result, the branch received applications for more participants than the 500-seat capacity hall could hold. To accommodate all of the participants, it was necessary to set up a monitor in a separate room to allow all participants to view the conference proceedings. On the day of the conference, 641 people from all walks of life were in attendance.
A separate program was also arranged for the infant and children
on the day, and 38 children from various areas spent an enjoyable day together. |
