A SEED JAPAN Mission

At the Earth Convention in 1992, it became clear that individual environmental problems were closely related and the cause was identified in the development of the demand for economic growth. It was recognized that these environmental problems were not just regional problems, but of a global scale. In conjunction with rapid economic globalization, environmental problems have continued to worsen.

A SEED JAPAN aims towards solutions to the social injustices that coexist with environmental problems, and takes action based on the following:

1. A focus on economic and community structures.

We believe that environmental problems derive from economic and community structures and take action focusing on this cause.

2. Spreading the message about environmental problems from a youth point of view.

We identify environmental problems and social injustices in the context of youth lifestyle, and from this starting point aim to spread the message to a large cross section of society.

3. Aiming to change society with a long-term perspective.

With constant concerns for the future of our earth, we create proposals and take action to change our present social system with long-term objectives.

A SEED JAPAN believes in taking action from the following standpoints:

・As the youths of our next generation we believe in securing the future of the earth for generations to come. We take pride intaking action to revolutionize and change our present society.

・As an NPO (nonprofit organization). We realize our social responsibility as an NPO and we believe in cooperating positively with other NPOs in order for the entire NPO system to gain strength.

・ Through the creation of partnerships with the Government, private enterprise and other NPOs to address environmental and social issues. We believe that the government, private enterprise and NPOs should have a mutual understanding of each other and should aim to coordinate together in the fight to solve environmental and social problems.

・ In cooperation with youth worldwide in order to solve cross border environmental problems. We believe cooperating positively with youth worldwide to take action at a grass-roots level.
