IBREA-Japan opened in 2007 as an overseas office of IBREA. It held the First Global Mental Health Seminar in 2014 as the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare planned to make the occupational stress test mandatory for workplaces hiring more than 50 employees as the Industrial Safety and Health Act amendment took effect.
Since then, IBREA-Japan has held a series of seminars each year at prestigious universities in Japan, including the University of Tokyo and Kyoto University. IBREA-Japan has presented cases and empirical research on mental health care based on Brain Education to Japanese society through the seminars.
- Theme: “Brain Education Encompassing Physical Strength, Mental Strength, and Brain Power”
- Date/Venue: August 5, Acros Fukuoka International Conference Center
In Japan, school education is going through a major transformation amidst social changes triggered by the 4th Industrial Revolution. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology announced a new educational direction to focus on learners and dialogue, thus facilitating more in-depth learning. This way, the development of one’s abilities to think, judge, and express is more emphasized than simply absorbing knowledge. In line with this policy, the “Common Test for University Admission” which includes descriptive questions will be introduced in January 2021.
Today, it is becoming more important that youth should be more active and independent so they set their own goals, learn, and act. The 5th seminar, in that context, chose the theme, “Brain Education Encompassing Physical Strength, Mental Strength, and Brain Power,” and featured discussions and case studies about how school education can help cultivate more active learners.
