Ridilover Inc. hosts Ridifest 2026 for youth and adults

Ridilover Inc. hosted ‘Ridifest 2026’ on August 6, 2026, in Tokyo, bringing together over 300 participants, including junior and senior high school students, adults working on social issues, and teachers and students from Ukraine.

The event focused on the theme of ‘nurturing the leaders of 2040’ through four primary discussion tracks: Ukraine, politics and administration, education, and entrepreneurship. Participants engaged in debates regarding the meaning of peace in the context of the war in Ukraine, the role of individuals in shaping social systems, the purpose of learning in the age of AI, and how to leverage personal differences in entrepreneurship.

Additional programming included study tours, international exchange activities such as tea ceremonies with Ukrainian students, and a social contest where students presented ideas for solving societal challenges.
