Promoting Regenerative Finance (ReFi) in Japan through community engagement, weekly newsletters, international events, and fostering exchanges between local and global ReFi initiatives.

We are ReFi Japan, a web3 community dedicated to promoting Regenerative Finance (ReFi) in our country to address climate change and global social issues. Our mission is to foster the growth and development of ReFi projects in Japan and showcase them to the world, while also bringing international ReFi initiatives to the Japanese audience.

As part of our commitment to spreading awareness about ReFi, we distribute a weekly newsletter that highlights the latest developments in the field. We actively engage with the global ReFi community to facilitate the exchange of ideas, projects, and best practices.

In addition to our digital efforts, we organize real-life events that bring together ReFi projects, enthusiasts, and stakeholders. On April 14th, 2023, we proudly hosted the first international ReFi event in Japan, which saw the participation of a diverse group of individuals and organizations interested in the regenerative finance movement. It also hosted two more Web3 and ReFi events until August 2023.
