The main participants in the project are elders and women, but schoolchildren have also participated in various workshops. Many villagers mentioned that there had been no opportunity for people of different generations or genders to meet, so the Ibasho project was designed to facilitate discussions between people of various ages and backgrounds. In the beginning, 70-80 people attended workshops. Over time, that number decreased as around 20 core members emerged.
