Since it is a question of convincing oneself of one’s own position, it is attracting attention as a very effective educational method for fostering the comprehensive skills (logical thinking, problem-solving, communication, presentation skills, etc.) necessary for global human resources, which are in demand right now.

[Challenge to the world in Fushimi] Achieved a Guinness World Record ™ with “Kyo Flame Sodefure!”!
The Student Executive Committee of the Kyoto Student Festival Project, which is planned and managed by students and supported by Kyoto’s universities, the business community, the local community, and the government, held a grand community exchange event in cooperation with the Kyoto International Student Film Festival in cooperation with seven shopping districts in the Fushimi area and the Kyoto International Student Film Festival as a pre-event ahead of the Kyoto Student Festival Main Festival scheduled to be held in October this year.
It has been 10 years since the creation of “Kyo Flame Sodefure!”, an original creation of the Kyoto Student Festival, and the number of student odori has exceeded 1,000 every year. So, this year, the 11th year, Kyo Flame Sodetouch! The special version was challenged by the Guinness World Record ™ for the number of people dancing together (Largest Comtemporary Dance) and was successfully recognized.
This large-scale pre-event, which was planned to enliven the Kyoto region with the enthusiasm of the students, was a great success with many visitors attending. We would like to express our gratitude to everyone who came to the event and to everyone who supported us in various ways.

report
This project, which was the largest pre-event in the history of the Kyoto Student Festival, was successfully completed thanks to the strong support of the seven shopping districts in the Fushimi area and everyone involved, and the students’ hopeful enthusiasm and challenge came to an end in the best possible way with the Guinness World Records ™ certification.
The students engage in a variety of exchange activities on a daily basis with the goal of “disseminating the charm of Kyoto” and “revitalizing the region.” We hope that this kind of exchange through the “Kyo Flame Sodefure!” will become the charm of “Kyoto City of Students” and be disseminated to the world, and above all, we will continue to explore new initiatives with the aim of becoming an organization that will allow the Kyoto Student Festival to take root in the community and further revitalize the city of Kyoto.
The culmination of the Kyoto Student Festival is the main festival, which is held every October. Please look forward to this festival that will be even more powerful due to the success of this event!
