What is "Experience and see a symbiotic society"?

This is a cultural project undertaken by Fuchu City in cooperation with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and the Arts Council Tokyo to realize a symbiotic society. Last year, we produced a broadcast program called "Listen to and see a symbiotic society" in which guests talk about activities related to a symbiotic society. This year, a hands-on program entitled "Experience and see a symbiotic society" will be held.
