SDGsSustainable Development GoalsAEON MALL Jakarta Garden City [Indonesia]We have been cooperating in AEON’s Hometown Forests Program since 2015. We are aiming for a forest similar to a natural forest by con-ducting the location survey of neighboring forests, selecting tree spe-cies from trees naturally growing in the region, and preferentially select seedlings that have grown locally and are adapted to the surrounding environment. This ensures that the forest will have an excellent disaster prevention function resistant to earthquakes, typhoons and tsunamis, thereby playing a multi-faceted role. At AEON MALL Tsu Minami (Mie Prefecture) which opened in November 2018, we planted 79 species of trees that were far more than conventional species and provided a village-vicinity forest area rich in variation due to changes in the ambient environment including deciduous trees, resulting in the increase in the number of contact points between biodiversity and people. In addition, by planting seedlings that will grow to a forest near the entrance where many customers pass through so that they can feel the growth of the trees whenever they visit the malls, and by introducing the modeled forest us-ing panel displays, we exercised our in-genuity to make customers feel familiar with AEON's activities. In the future, I would like to make proposals such as providing opportunities for customers to come in contact with forest, and building biotopes that creates an en-vironment for various living creatures.Creating a forest taking advantage of the characteristics of each communityYuhide MurakamiSenior Researcher, Japanese center for International studies in Ecology Institute for Global Environmental StrategiesAEON MALL CSR / ESG Report 201927
