Project Purpose
The purpose of this research is to build a social process for realizing sustainable regions based on soft mobility. The development and dissemination of ABOiD is the ignition mechanism for this purpose, and is positioned as the starting point for materializing the social process. As a first case, we will conduct research and study, including the feasibility of local business entities, targeting Ichikawa City (mainly the Konodai district), which has continued to interact with the government and local residents, as well as Misato Town in Shimane Prefecture.
