抄録

The essence of social education is voluntary and collaborative learning. Staffs at the community learning center, and others involved in social education have been accumulating practices and methods of social education. However, those seem to be no longer applicable due to the traveling and activity restriction posed by the COVID pandemic. On the other hand, social education is expected to contribute to overcome this common crisis.

This paper introduces the strategy implemented at Nagano Prefecture to face the regional and social issues caused by the virus. The possibility of social education using online platforms will be discussed to develop new region and society post the COVID pandemic.
