Her Imperial Highness Crown Princess Akishino, Kiko: I believe that TV programs, films and digital media are playing an increasingly important role in education. (Related to the “Japan Prize”) 秋篠宮皇嗣妃(紀子)殿下:テレビ番組や、映画、デジタルメディアなどが教育に果たす役割は、ますます重要になっているのではないでしょうか。(「日本賞」を巡り)

Yesterday, Her Imperial Highness Crown Princess Akishino, Kiko expressed her earnest wish to foster one’s educational progress also through “Digital Media”, besides the already established visual medias like television, film and video works. The speech had been made in the well established ceremonial event of the “Japan Prize”, organised by the semi-state TV channel NHK.

I assume that Her Imperial Highness Crown Princess Akishino, Kiko must have been delighted to see the film “I am Greta” winning “The Grand Prix Japan Prize 2021.”
