Overview of Forum2050 Organization
What We Aspire To
What if, for instance, over a billion children worldwide transcend borders and linguistic barriers, surpass cultural and religious differences, to share and learn from each other’s unique visions of the future, what might unfold?”
To realize this grand hypothesis, we center our efforts on a project called ‘IMAGINE 2050,’ aiming to construct forums where as many children as possible engage with and learn from the future. Alongside related activities, we evolve this initiative.
Ultimately, our aim is to expand this network to encompass millions to tens of millions in Japan and hundreds of millions to billions worldwide. Yet, quantity is not our sole focus. What truly matters is the profound impact on individual children across Japan and the globe. Through diverse connections with the world, we envision a world where children deeply feel happiness, thereby transforming their mindset and way of life. This is the essence of Forum2050’s existence.
In pursuit of this vision, Forum2050 proceeds with patience, embracing detours and enjoying the journey. We continue advancing towards our dreams, learning from various mentors worldwide who resonate with our mission.

The Background of Establishment
The power to create a desirable future emerges from the hearts of children who live in the present and aspire to live in the future. And the power born within each child’s heart, when connected and resonated with others, becomes a significant force to change society.
We, at Forum2050, have established ourselves with the vision to support children who strive to create the future and find happiness in living and connecting with others. We aim to provide a “space” where children can shape their visions for the future, share them, and learn from each other.
The name “Forum2050” embodies our aspiration to create a “forum” where children with a desire to make the future (for example, the year “2050”) better can gather and learn together. It is a place we want to build for children and those who wish to support them.
What is needed for the future is the ability to solve problems in the society of tomorrow.
What is needed for a better future society is to address “happiness.

Forum2050 SUPPORTER
As a content service provider in the field of digital materials for architectural CG, we strive to contribute to society. When we learned about Forum2050’s activities, we were moved by its concept of supporting children in co-creating a peaceful future by bringing the digital and the real fully into resonance, and we decided to support the organization. We sincerely hope that, as both Forum2050 and our company continue to grow, new possibilities for collaboration will open up along the way.
Takeshi Furukawa, President and CEO, Fine Co., Ltd.
Forum2050’s vision of laying the foundation for two billion children to connect and co-create a peaceful and prosperous future is, I believe, exactly what not only Japan but the whole world needs today. Even when we are swamped by the day-to-day work of schools, we must never forget how important it is to take action with an eye to the future the children will live in, and to the world. I believe that if children receive the right support, it is never “too early.” Supporting Forum2050 is, in other words, my own commitment, as someone involved in education, to the children.
