As the winning team of the first National High School Policy Championship, hosted by Junior Chamber International Japan, TEIGEN at Fifteen paid a courtesy visit to Fumio Kishida, the 101st Prime Minister, at the Prime Minister's Office.
With the press watching, we presented to the Prime Minister on introducing mock elections into schools and on a concept for a digital election system.
The Prime Minister told us he genuinely hoped we would keep taking problems on one by one and keep the intention of giving something back to society.
TEIGEN at Fifteen will keep going, driven by "why?", to make the next wind.
