As the issue of ‘experience disparity’—the gap in extracurricular opportunities for children based on their family’s financial situation—continues to be a concern in Japan, a new initiative has been launched to provide free movie screenings for families during the summer vacation.
This program aims to ensure that all children, regardless of their economic background, can enjoy a typical summer experience by watching films with their parents. Such initiatives are crucial in fostering equal opportunities for children to engage in cultural and recreational activities.
