In order to clearly communicate “Fukushima’s Revitalization Today” to domestic and international audiences, the Prefecture has created “Steps for Reconstruction and Revitalization in Fukushima Prefecture”, which summarises the progress and challenges since the Great East Japan Earthquake.
The English, Chinese, and Korean versions are now available on our website.
This issue’s cover features photos highlighting the revitalization efforts in Namie Town. “Fuku no Saba” mackerel is anticipated to become a new local speciality. Raised in a fully closed-cycle land-based aquaculture facility, the fish carry a low risk of parasites and are safe to eat raw. Another feature is the lighting and firing of a noborigama, a traditional climbing kiln, for the first time in 14 years at “Togei no Mori Obori”, or the Obori Soma Ware Products Hall of the town’s traditional craft.
The Fukushima Revitalization Information Portal Site provides information on the current status of Fukushima’s revitalization in 10 languages: English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Thai. The “Steps for Reconstruction and Revitalization in Fukushima Prefecture” is also available on the portal site. (You can change the language using the button in the top-right corner.) Be sure to check other pages on the portal site.
