The University of Tokyo One Earth Guardians Development Organization (Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo) and the Toyota Mobility Foundation (Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo) have released application information for the 5th cohort of the 'Good Life on Earth' idea realization support program, aimed at high school students, technical college students, and 1st-2nd year university students.
Continuing from last year, the 5th cohort recruitment seeks individuals who have ideas connected to the Earth's future, fulfilling the 'Good Life' of this planet, using 'something' they are passionate about as a starting point.
Upon passing the selection process, participants will proceed to research and development after refining their ideas through mentoring by professors from the University of Tokyo. In principle, the costs incurred for these activities will be supported by the program.
[Mentoring is provided by professors from the University of Tokyo, and accompanying staff are also closely involved in the activities.]
Since the program began in 2022, 29 selected players are currently active. Through advice from cutting-edge researchers acting as mentors and opportunities to interact with peers of the same generation who share the same aspirations, participants have further expanded the 'something' they are passionate about, bringing them closer to realizing their ideas for a Good Life.
