As governments struggle to solve it, Renovate&nbsp;Japan tackles that as a social&nbsp;enterprise by making use of the renovation process of vacant buildings. This idea that we call \u201cTatenaoshi\u201d not only greatly reduces the&nbsp;tradeoff between business profits and social action, but reinforces the power of local communities. It also solves the problem of vacant&nbsp; houses, which is another social&nbsp;issue that is growing in Japan. As a founder of Renovate Japan, Kai will discuss the idea of Tatenaoshi&nbsp;and the&nbsp;practical cases that they have faced so far with that&nbsp;model.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Registration<\/th>\n<td>\n<p>Apply from the registration&nbsp;form&nbsp;by&nbsp;Friday, April 19<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/forms.office.com\/r\/xr1hgSKqBq?origin=lprLink\" >Register<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/cmsdata\/att\/01225_16941_010.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" >Tatenaoshi~Renovating Lives, Buildings, and Society~<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/common\/img\/ico_file_pdf.svg\" alt=\"PDF\u30d5\u30a1\u30a4\u30eb\">\uff08691KB\uff09<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"cmn_textPhoto right\">\n<figure>\n<span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/cmsdata\/att\/01225_16942_010.jpg\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p>Born in 1993, Kai is a social entrepreneur who tackles poverty issues internationally from both research and practical sides.&nbsp;After studying development economics at Hitotsubashi University and the University of Toronto,<\/p>\n<p>he worked as a researcher at a private thinktank and an international organization.
