ゴールデンウィーク明けの開催となりました第22回の定例会では、ソーシャルインパクトについて活動を行うワーキングループ３にフォーカスし、「女性ＰＭが出来るソーシャルインパクトって何？」をテーマに、ブレインストーミングを実施しました。
個人／社会と難易度高／低の四象限を軸に、実施できる案について長めのブレストをグループを分けて二回行いましたところ、一つのテーマについて深く会話でき、満足度が高かったと好評でした。それぞれのグループで、色々な案が出されましたが、関連する内容をグルーピング、紐付けしていった結果、二つの案が特に議論の対象となりました。
一つは、「防災の現場で活躍できる女性PMの育成」です。「女性防災士が全国に5万人いるが、活躍の場が限られている」といったメンバの問題提起に対し、「女性に地域活動での発言権がない」「災害現場での女性のセキリュティ確保が必要」「女性として必要な支援のアピールができていないのではないか？」と活発な意見が聞かれました。そして、「直接現場でボランティアに参加するのではなく、プロジェクトマネジメントを災害現場にも取り込めるようなイベントの企画などができれば、進めやすいのではないか」との方向性が出されました。
また、もう一つの案は「児童養護施設退所者への支援」です。「就労支援としての面接対策」「女性のライププラン相談」「助けとなる社会制度や法律の知識伝達」など、こちらも具体的な支援案に踏み込んで会話が進みました。
集中してブレストした後は、頭を切り替えて、少しライトなテーマに移り、昨今の物価上昇を踏まえて、「あなたの家庭の物価高対策」です。ふるさと納税の活用やポイ活、固定費のダウン、買い物回数の限定、オンラインモールのセールをチェックしないといった、思わずうなづいてしまうものから、「円安で外貨投資がすごいことになっている」という攻めのコメント、「対策はしない、受け入れる」といった意見もあり、驚きあり、笑いありの楽しいトピックになりました。
本日会話したソーシャルインパクトについての活動は、今後も継続的に検討を進め、女性リーダーならではの社会貢献につなげていきたいと思っています。

The 22nd regular meeting, held after the Golden Week holidays. It was focused on Working Group 3, which conducts activities on social impact, and brainstormed. The theme of the brainstorming was "What is the social impact that women PMs can make?”
The participants were divided into groups and brainstormed twice about ideas that could be implemented based on the four quadrants of individual/society and high/low difficulty, and the brainstorming sessions were well received by the participants, who were able to have in-depth conversations about a single theme and were highly satisfied with the results. Each group had a variety of ideas, but after grouping and linking related content, two ideas became the main subject of discussion.
The first was to "develop female PMs who can play an active role in the field of disaster management. In response to the members' comment, "There are 50,000 female disaster management specialists in Japan, but their activities are limited," active opinions were exchanged, such as "Women do not have a voice in local activities", "It is necessary to ensure women's security at disaster sites," and "As women, we may not be able to appeal for the necessary support. The participants suggested that it would be easier to proceed if we could organize events that would incorporate project management into disaster sites, instead of directly volunteering at the sites.
Another idea is "support for those who have left foster care facilities”. The conversation went on to specific support ideas such as "interviewing for employment support," "counseling on women's life plan," and "knowledge transfer of social systems and laws”.
After concentrated brainstorming, we switched our minds and moved on to a slightly lighter theme, " Countermeasures against rising prices in your household," in light of the recent price hikes. Some of the comments made us nod our heads in agreement, such as "use of hometown tax payment," "collecting points," "downsizing fixed costs," "limiting shopping frequency," and "not checking sales at online malls," while others were more aggressive, saying "foreign currency investment is going great with the weak yen," and still others were surprised, saying "I will not take any measures, I accept rising prices . It was an enjoyable topic with both surprise and laughter.
We would like to consider the social impact activities we discussed today, and link them to the social contributions that only women leaders can make.
