We would like to inform you that the event "Universal Camp TOKYO 2020," in which Tanseisha is participating as a member of the executive committee, has been postponed.
This event is held by companies active in the Shibaura Konan area in collaboration with people living in MINATO CITY and the local area, with the aim of creating a society where everyone can live vibrantly together, regardless of age or disability. The event has been held at Shinagawa Season Terrace (MINATO CITY) since 2017, and has been disseminating its message to society at large.
Since 2005, we have been cooperating with the planning and running of "Universal Camp in Hachijojima," an event organized by the NPO Universal Event Association. "Universal Camp in Hachijojima" is an exchange event that brings together a variety of participants, based on the concepts of normalization and diversity.
"Universal Camp TOKYO" is a collaboration between the local government and businesses based in the Shibaura Konan area. As part of their social contribution activities in the region, the project provides an opportunity for diverse people to gather, interact, and understand each other in the city center, with the theme of "realizing a symbiotic society and understanding diversity through local efforts."
Last year's event provided opportunities for deepening mutual understanding by holding exchange programs such as panel discussions and talk shows with experts, programs introducing activities in a variety of fields including business, sports, arts, and leisure, and programs for experiencing parasports.

We had been making preparations to deliver a variety of content this year as well, but after discussing the matter internally and with related parties, we have decided to postpone the event in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and to prioritize the safety of visitors and everyone else involved.
Although it has not yet been decided whether the event will be held next year, we will continue to work together with everyone to promote understanding of diversity and realize a society of coexistence.
