Combining Japan with the world’s public intellectuals is key to resolving issues that we all share.
To deepen the understanding of Japan and to maintain good relations between Japan and other countries, aid is granted through fellowships for research in Japan and through diverse grant programs for Japanese studies organizations. To promote networking on an international level, surveys are carried out on overseas researchers and organizations of Japanese studies. Collaborative research and dialogue projects are also carried out to confront the problems of the world or specific regions and to seek measures to solve such problems.
