Welcome to the English website of ARI - the Asian Rural Institute
ARI is a training center for rural community leaders set on a 6 hectare farm in Northern Japan. The focus of our training program is to create an educational environment in which these leaders can discover within themselves and within their people a more desirable image of community. They learn how to observe situations, identify local resources, and discover ways to use and enhance those resources. At the heart of our program is the concept of 'foodlife' - holding significant value in human life and the food that sustains life.
