Overview of the business
By utilizing the creative and academic research results of university researchers in the policies and projects of Kyoto City, we aim to return the knowledge of university research to the local community and society. Researchers and the departments in charge of Kyoto City have been collaborating on research since the planning stage, and we aim to form a network based on the surveys and research of this project by holding report meetings on the results of this research and holding exchange meetings between researchers and citizens, city officials, students, etc.

| Research Theme | Rakuchu Rakugai Network Connected by Kyoto Vegetables (Local Agricultural Products) ~Past, Present, and Future of Local Production for Local Consumption~ |
| Principal Investigator | Doshisha University Faculty of Economics Assistant Professor Nobuko Mimata |
| Research Outline | From the perspective of local production for local consumption, we clarified the current situation of "swing sales" that have been handed down in Kyoto for a long time and the "direct sales office of Eki Naka" of the subway, which has been spreading recently, through questionnaires and interviews with producers and consumers. He proposed to Kyoto City that maintaining and developing Kyoto vegetables in conjunction with policies not only in the agricultural field but also in a wide range of fields (welfare, tourism, culture, etc.) could lead to the realization of a Kyoto that is friendly to both people and the environment. |

Ongoing Projects (Continued from the previous fiscal year)
| Research Theme | Provision of support measures to realize an environment where family caregivers can balance work and nursing care (work-care-life balance) |
| Principal Investigator | Ritsumeikan University Faculty of Industrial Sociology Associate Professor Mao Saito |
| Research Outline | In the previous year's research, based on questionnaire surveys of companies and employees working there, as well as interviews with people who were forced to retire due to nursing care, it was found that further corporate and community support, especially for male caregivers, is necessary. Therefore, this year, we conducted an additional survey of companies and surveyed the currently expanding male caregivers' associations, and proposed support that the government can provide to companies (awareness-raising projects, subsidies, etc.) and support that can be provided to the community (information collection and provision of information on male caregivers' associations). |
