The Embassy of Japan invites you to attend a public lecture by Mr. Koichiro Kobayashi, a paraclimber and founder of Monkey Magic. Mr. Kobayashi first started free climbing in 1984 when he was 16 years old. In 1996, he was told by the doctor that he would completely lose his sight from a progressive eye‐disease. For years, he lived in desperation. He was however fortunate to be inspired by so many people he had become friends with, and through those experiences, he founded NPO Monkey Magic to further free climbing, the sport he truly loves, to others with sight disabilities just like himself. To join the lecture, please send your name, ID number and contact details to jinfocul@nb.mofa.go.jp or call 020-2898515 to facilitate entry to the Embassy.
