Contents of the course

1st "Basic Knowledge of World Heritage" Lecturer: Mr. Hideo Kataoka

1st World Heritage Course
World Heritage Course 1st

  • The first lecture was to learn "Basic knowledge about World Heritage".
    Students learned "World Heritage Registration Criteria", "Process up to registration", "Evaluation of World Heritage" in a quiz format, and the participants also enjoyed participating. .
  • The World Heritage Site was established by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), which was established after World War II.
    "World heritage is a tool for peacebuilding" "War is born in human hearts, so it is necessary to build peace in human hearts." (From the preamble of the UNESCO Charter) was very impressive, and it was a very good story that changed the way of thinking about World Heritage.

2nd "Japanese World Heritage Sites and Regional Attractions" Lecturer: Mr. Junko Nemoto

The 2nd World Heritage Course
World Heritage Course 2nd

  • In the second session, we introduced 10 "Japan World Heritage Sites". He talked about each World Heritage with episodes, etc., so I was able to listen to it very clearly and interestingly.
  • In addition, we introduced the site of Fujitsuka next to Yokone Inari Shrine, which was selected as one of the 100 Views of Fujimi in the Kanto region as an attraction of Izumi Ward, as well as Tenno Moriizumi-kan, the main building of sericulture and a historic building certified by Yokohama City.

3rd World Heritage Site Related to the Olympic Games Lecturer: Mr. Hideo Kataoka

The 3rd World Heritage Course

  • In the third session, he talked about the Olympics scheduled to be held one year later, and stories registered by Yokohama City as "Host Town" as "World Heritage Sites Related to the Olympics". .
  • He also explained the World Heritage sites of U.K., Tunisia, Israel, Benin, Botswana, and Cote d'Ivoire, which Yokohama will accept as host town countries. "As a host town, the story of" wine "and" World Heritage "is the most exciting way to get along with people from other countries! ] The teacher's words were very interesting and I enjoyed listening. The story was at a good tempo, and everyone was listening eagerly while taking notes.
  • He also explained the African Development Conference to be held in August as "Yokohama, the closest city to Africa." I think it was a good opportunity to know that Yokohama City has connections with various countries.
  • Also, between the 2nd and 3rd courses, it was just the time when the World Heritage Site was decided in 2019, so we talked about `` Mozu Furuichi Burial Mounds in Osaka '' Was.

Major voices of participants

  • It's an explanation related to the content of World Heritage, Oh, yeah! I realized it. It was a wonderful lecture.
  • I had a very good time. It was a fulfilling time to explain in an easy-to-understand manner even if the answer was wrong in a participatory lecture. I look forward to the next lecture.
  • I thought we had to value nature and culture even more. I thought that being registered as a World Heritage Site would not only have a wonderful history and culture, but also hope that it will be "peace" for the future.
  • I didn't know there was a silk mill in Izumi Ward. I think there are a lot of things I don't know yet.
  • I didn't know that there is a host town country, so what kind of heritage is there in that country? I was able to know what kind of country it was, and I was able to feel close to that country.


 

From inhabitant of a ward activity support center

This course was planned and held as three consecutive lectures where you can learn about "World Heritage and Local Attractions".

  • In the second session, we talked about the appeal of Izumi Ward as a regional attraction, and in the third session we talked about the relationship between Yokohama and Host Town and Yokohama and Africa, and I think we were able to learn about the appeal of local communities through World Heritage Sites.
  • The instructor's teacher said, "Learning World Heritage is also wonderful, but I would like you to know the charm of the area where you live and to excite various things from the area." It resonated very impressive and resonated with my heart.
  • In addition, there are many opinions in the questionnaire that "I wanted to learn more about the history of Japan and abroad and go on a trip", and I hope that those who attended this course will be a catalyst for their active activities.
