Co-Creation Workshop Themes
  • How can we achieve a balance between care and the economy?
  • What does “better therapeutic support” mean for the future of child day-care and after-school day services?
  • What mechanisms can enhance well-being in welfare workplaces — how can we balance staff happiness and quality of care?
  • How can we make community transportation and mobility accessible for everyone — toward a society where all can travel safely?
  • Building a violence-free inclusive society: Reflecting together toward the 20th anniversary of the CRPD.
  • How can we create “future learning” where diverse children grow together?
  • What systems are needed for persons with disabilities to thrive as leaders in society?
  • How can we design new workplace environments that promote inclusive employment?
  • How can we realize workplaces where foreign workers and persons with disabilities work together?
  • How can we dissolve the boundaries between persons with and without disabilities through art?
  • How can we help everyone understand “inclusion” as a personal matter?
  • How can we design a society accessible to all through technology?
  • How can we further advance an inclusive society toward the Asia Summit 2026 (to be held next year)?
