INTRODUCTION
Urban parks have diversified their roles in society with the times, serving as a place of rest and relaxation for people of all ages, an urban habitat for preserving biodiversity, a playground and outdoor learning center for children, an evacuation shelter in times of disaster and in many other capacities. At the same time, numerous businesses and projects have been launched inside urban parks, which has been enhancing the connection between individuals and their community. More so than ever before, parks function as a “nucleus of urban development” by getting all kinds of people involved with one another, and are growing as a driving force behind restructuring efforts of local communities.
What should the functions of urban parks be? What hardware or software is required? NPO birth, in its quest to build a better relationship between people and nature, has steadily refined the “power of parks” as the quality much needed of today’s parks.
Our mission and commitment is to work together with each individual in order to perfect the power of parks and bring a fresh breath of life to urban areas.

3 Teams Working Toward the Same Goal
NPO birth uses its collective strengths in three fields of expertise to hone the “power of parks” and propose exciting lifestyles that embrace the natural environment in cities. The end target is to connect people with the natural environment and with each other as a basis for building a better relationship between city-dwellers and the nature in their communities.
Cooperation Coordination Team
Cooperation Coordination Team organizes communities for environmental projects. They plan, implement and manage all sorts of activities ranging from events to urban development projects, by applying community-building know-how in order to work with individuals and organizations of varying position and perspective such as governments, resident organizations, businesses, etc.

Environmental Education Team is a leader in urban parks and green spaces. They visit parks and green spaces to survey wildlife status and human activity, and to identify and resolve risks and issues concerning the natural environment. They also provide “nature interpretations” and “environmental education” to visitors, and disseminate information via park signboards, pamphlets, the internet and other means and media.
