More than a year after the devastating earthquake and tsunami in March 2011, AAR JAPAN continues recovery aid by repairing institutions for the elderly and persons with disabilities (PWDs), supporting market expansion for products made by PWDs, promoting employment opportunities for PWDs, and many other activities. AAR JAPAN in particular focuses on the elderly and those with disabilities, because they tend to be the most vulnerable after a disaster and require long-term support.

Tohoku Youth Venture (TYV) is an initiative to help young Japanese implement their ideas to rejuvenate the area struck by earthquaque, tsunami and nuclear plant explosion on March 11, 2011.

We aim at reaching 1800 more youths and helping 10~20 teams launch their ideas in 2013.
