We will have a symposium titled “NAOJ Future Symposium : How to decide and promote future plans” on December 7 and 8, 2022. This symposium is to discuss the framework how future plans at NAOJ should be planned, selected, and promoted, beyond the division of various astronomical communities in Japan. It will be an important occasion to discuss the future of astronomy in Japan, as well as NAOJ, so we expect many participant over the whole Japanese astronomical community to join and have discussions.
