The Journey of Satoyama Conservation and Regional Revitalization - Hisaya District, Matsuyama City The "Satoyama Conservation Project" in Hisaya District, Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture, launched in 2001, involves local company "Matsuyama Environmental Development" and residents working together to restore degraded forests and revitalize the community. By the 2020s, the project had achieved cumulative planting of over 200,000 trees, with forest regeneration progressing across more than 100 hectares. Improvements in the water quality of the Ishite River and the return of fireflies were observed. However, challenges remain, including landslides due to climate change, an increase in invasive species, and a shortage of workers due to an aging population. Efforts to address these issues through the use of AI technology and funds have made the project a notable model for sustainable community development.
