In order to promote the concept of Satoumi, the importance of its conservation and the livelihoods of people working on Satoumi (coastal seas settlements), we have been making public outreach efforts on Satoumi creation such as conducting a series of public lectures, research studies, and conservation activities. In addition, we have been disseminating the idea of Satoumi to the world, and expanding the network of cooperation in promoting Satoumi creation. Keyword Satoyama-Satoumi
