『人と人がホッコリ繋がる昭和の家~Sasabase』
Sasabaseではこれまで、空家を活用したイベントや一緒に行う農作業を通じて人と人が繋がる場の提供を行ってきました。
<空家を活用したイベント>
<農作業を通じての交流>
私達が本当に目指したいのはInclusionな居場所創り…
子ども達が自ら気付き才能を開花させるきっかけづくりをしていきたいのです。
大切なことは、「学校でしか学べないこと」と「地域でしか学べないこと」を大人達がきちんと意識し理解すること。そして、学校と地域が協働し互いを尊重し合えれば、きっと子ども達の未来はもっと広がっていくでしょう。
子ども達が多世代で学び合うことで気づき成長していく場では大人達も楽しく生き生きしているはず。

《About Sasabase》
Let me give you a brief introduction about Sasabase.
Our mission is Regional activation by using existing resources in our region.
For the mission,
- We think of effective use of vacant houses.
- We create an environment for anybody to learn from each other through multi-generation exchange.
- We provide opportunities for anyone to interact with each other through farm work experience.
Up until now we have organized many events in a vacant house which we arranged for use. The house has farmland; hence we have provided farming activities such as plowing field and glowing flowers and so on.
Now we are in preparation of a new project for creation of learning environment in the vacant house called Sasabase. As you may have noticed, it is the same name as our association. Sasabase is located in the place that is surrounded by beautiful nature and also 1 minute walk from the train station. You can come to Sasabase about 50 minutes from the central city of Osaka.
We are going to open Terarakoya which is a kind of small school. This project is entitled Terra’Co. If you don’t know Terakoya, please see the brief description bellow.
“Small private school Terakoya(寺子屋) was in Edo period in Japan. Classes were held in temples called TERA(寺) in Japanese.”
Our school will open for kids to improve self-esteem, develop communication skill and increase creativity.
Kids can get basic education at public school, but we’d like to provide other learning opportunities in community. There are a lot of prospective teachers in the world including senior citizens and disabled people. They could come to Sasabase or teach online. Kids also could be good teachers for everyone. We are in preparation assuming that kids will be able to do regional contribution activities in cooperation with local companies. Anyone can be a teacher and a student.
Now we remodeled the old house for Terra’Co, and we are doing some activities including farming on weekends.
