Towards a Brighter Future With Pets | Riko Kubo | TEDxYouth@CanadianAcademy

A life-long animal lover, Riko Kubo has developed her interest in animal welfare since elementary school after a project on euthanasia. She has become passionate about raising awareness about animal suffering in Japan and pet welfare issues. After participating in leadership & entrepreneurship programs and speaking to politicians, Riko started a non-profit social media account to educate people in Japan about animal welfare. Her experiences abroad led to her finding out how animals are treated in other countries. She hopes to bring a broader understanding of animal welfare back to Japan and inspire others to take action to save animals. By sharing her vision, Riko challenges Japan to normalize equity between animals and humans. It is her sincere hope to make a great change to the Japanese pet industry.
