Miyakojima Kids Net International
Miyakojima-Kidsnet.org is primarily an experimental regional educational program for children based on a sociocultural and environmental research project on the remote Japanese islands of Okinawa. The goal of Miyako Island (Miyakojima) Kidsnet.org is to provide a platform for exchanging ideas and potential solutions to problems that small islands face. Not only should adults consider this issue, but young people should also engage by considering the problems of small islands and seeking their unique solutions as competent environmental and sociocultural stewards in the region. For the practical execution of this intergenerational outreach initiative, we request that readers of all ages share the material provided on this website with children and young people to find solutions to improve environmental conditions and conserve the island's natural resources.
