CSR
EDENA’s CSR work — carrying local culture, landscape heritage, and human ties into the future, through recording and communication.
Through technology and expression, EDENA works to hand the cultures, landscapes, memories, and human connections still alive in local communities forward into the future.
This isn’t preservation in the ordinary sense. We are building the mechanism by which people and place can meet each other again — through record and through telling.
Recording and inheriting cultural and landscape heritage
Coral reefs, conch shells, terraced rice fields — preserving Japan’s cultural heritage
Holding both natural environment and local culture in view, we look again at the value of the landscape and cultural heritage still alive across Japan, and carry it on to the next generation.
The Sky-High Terraced Rice Fields — documentary archive
A continuous video archive set in the home of Uonuma Koshihikari rice — the sky-high terraced fields — recording landscape and the human practice that lives there.
We record the turning of the seasons, the farming year, and the work of human hands — preserving the place’s quiet appeal for the future.
Voice and memory archive
“Koe-Isan” / Voice Heritage project
A project that treats voice not as mere audio data, but as a cultural asset that carries the memory of a person and a place — and records and inherits it as such.
A project that treats voice not as mere audio data, but as a cultural asset that carries the memory of a person and a place — and records and inherits it as such.We are aiming for a new form of archive — one that carries forward the way a place tells, the way a place sounds, and the air a place holds.

Co-creation with regions
Regional Voice Ambassador “Iine-chan / イ〜ネちゃん”
An attempt to carry the memory of a region and its people forward, through a friendly character and ongoing documentation.
We aim to convey the appeal of a place not through hard PR, but through a familiar voice and a friendly presence.
What EDENA aims for here
EDENA carries local culture, landscape, and human connection forward — through recording and through telling.
Re-editing the easily-overlooked appeal and memory of a place into a form that suits the times ahead, and delivering it to the next generation.
That is the basic stance of EDENA’s CSR.
