Looking for community/neighborhood meetings about tourism issues in Kyoto (July–August)

Hi everyone!

I'm an anthropology researcher from Italy working on my master's thesis about overtourism in Kyoto. I'll be doing fieldwork there from late July to early September and I'm trying to attend community or neighborhood meetings (町内会, 住民説明会, or similar) where local residents discuss tourism-related issues.

I speak Japanese fluently, so language is not a barrier at all — I'm happy to attend meetings held entirely in Japanese.

If anyone knows of events, assemblies, or grassroots gatherings planned for July or August where these topics are on the agenda, I'd love to hear about them. Any lead is welcome — formal or informal, big or small.

Thanks a lot!
