Wooden architecture in Japan has a lifespan of roughly only 30 years, which is very low when compared to 141 years in the UK and 96 years in the US. It also relies on timber imports for house building, and this plays a part in overseas deforestation. Conversely, Jito architecture, characterized by the 1,300 year old Horyu-ji Temple Main Hall, as well as old kominka wooden houses that have been in use for 100 years or more, also exist in Japan. In order to mitigate global warming and build sustainable societies, it is essential to drastically lengthen the lifespan of wooden architecture, including existing buildings, and to recognize and preserve wooden architecture with value. However, there is presently a shortage in the amount of people with the knowledge and abilities to achieve this. Through this initiative, this organization aims to hold a "Traditional Architecture Preservation and Utilization Manager Training Course" over 3 years to raise personnel who can recognize and maintain wooden architecture as a cultural asset, as well as restore and manage it. A graduate network will then be built, making a contribution to sustainable city and residence building throughout Japan.
