November 2023 Sustainability Highlights with Tove & JJ

Putting strategies into action to balance the needs of people and planet is the ongoing aim of many of us around the world- here are a few positive examples to inspire from Japan.

In this month’s sustainable short-takes talk this month, sustainability-focused consultant Tove Kinooka shared her recent Enteleco project- at one of my favorite destinations in Japan — Kamikatsu. Read and find more links and insights from the talk on MEDIUM here. Watch the video of the LIVE talk on YouTube (AD-FREE all winter!)

In this episode, Tove talks about the executives they took to Kamikatsu for a entrepreneurship & sustainability mindset training program. Joy talks sustainable tourism strategies in action to reduce crowds and waste while getting more income and catering to customers. Tove talked about HR training & sustainable development for better workplaces. And Joy talked about the absence of stories about women in history at museums, represented on statues and in travel narratives in Japan.
