JAF (Japan Automobile Federation, President: Masayoshi Sakaguchi) will hold a workshop-style scholarship event focusing on tackling social issues, aimed at university students currently seeking employment (scheduled to graduate in 2028).
This program is an experiential initiative that does not compete on the volume of knowledge or the level of perfection, but rather emphasizes the attitude of thinking for oneself and taking on challenges (= adventurous spirit). Participants will be able to experience how to generate ideas and draw up solutions to resolve social issues through their own power in the future.
Applications for this program will open on Thursday, March 26, 2026, and the workshop will be held on Tuesday, May 12, 2026.

## ■ Project Background
JAF has provided road services in Japan for over 60 years, supporting the safety and peace of mind of automobile users. In addition, its membership exceeded 20.5 million as of April 2025, reaching a record high.
On the other hand, the value of mobility is changing significantly, and the automotive industry is entering a period of transformation said to occur 'once in a century.'
Amidst such environmental changes, JAF is working to create new value as an entity that supports the lives of all people involved in mobility, without being confined to conventional frameworks. In fact, ambitious initiatives born from the ideas of young employees are gradually beginning to take shape.
Therefore, we launched this program to support the experience of young people—who will lead society in the future—in formulating their own questions by continuously taking on further challenges without fearing failure.
