It is worth noting that the concept of "Komenkan" began in Japan after World War II and its goal is to achieve development through social learning and the exchange of experiences and skills among citizens. Through community activities, 10,000 people meeting association is responsible for running the Komenkan Hantagawa Center and the association promotes sustainable development in the community by promoting local culture, planning intergenerational activities and promoting issue resolution through local human resource activities such as reviving local soybean cultivation and its use in primary school classrooms, resulting in the building of a joint unit that fosters pride with local seniors serving as teachers.

The center has been awarded the Asahi Nobi Education Award in 2013 and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports and Science Award and the Community Center Award twice in 2010 and 2019, 2019, as well as a Global Kominkan Special Award in 2019.
