Wheelchair Accessible Field Trip Events<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Wheelchair Accessible Field Trip is a program where participants who have never used a wheelchair and wheelchair users come together to explore the city. During the trip, they learn about the different barriers present in the urban environment and work together to overcome them. This experience helps foster a mindset of inclusivity and accessibility. The program is being implemented in various fields such as community development, regional revitalization, tourism, and education. In the fiscal year 2022, a total of seven town-walking events took place in cities like Sapporo, Tokyo, Tokushima, and Okinawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
