The tournament will be held on Sunday, December 19
This year, the 17th edition of the event, was held online as it was last year in light of the coronavirus pandemic. The number of applicants was 99, an increase from last year (75 groups), and while many of the entries were from universities that were participating for the first time and humanities faculties such as the Faculty of Policy Studies, there were also entries from science faculties. On the day of the competition, the 72 groups that passed the screening were divided into nine breakout groups and presented their research on a wide range of themes related to urban policy, followed by a question-and-answer session between the two judges and other presenters.
The presentation was live-streamed on YouTube and was viewed not only by students, but also by a variety of people, including university officials, government officials, and business people.
After the presentations, the student executive committee conducted a student project. As a place for interaction across universities and faculties, we held a feedback exchange meeting where presenters shared questions and impressions about the content of their presentations, and a talk session to discuss university life during the coronavirus pandemic using SNS. The announcement of the winners was held via Zoom webinar after the student project, and the joy of the winners was something that touched the hearts of the winners on the screen, indicating that this competition was a place for the presenters to learn and gain a sense of fulfillment.
