What is Zenbird?

Zenbird is an online magazine with a unique editorial focus on social good ideas and practices in Japan. It covers social startups, non-profits and local policies solving social issues with unique, innovative ideas and solutions. It also introduces sustainable lifestyle tips which are deeply rooted in Japanese traditional culture.

“Zen” means “Goodness” in Japan. We named our website with a hope that socially good ideas throughout Japan will fly to the world like a “Bird”, and bring attention to attractive features of our country.
