This is a class in which students of the Department of Social Design, Momoyama Gakuin University, learn how to put social welfare theory into practice. Students will participate in volunteer activities for therapeutic recreation, for example, community cooking and inclusive camping. Our aim is to create an environment that fosters interpersonal support. We also hope it will be a place where mutual learning takes place with a view to addressing social issues.
