KAKEHASHI Project: Dispatch Emerging Researchers Group 2 9 Japanese Energy and Economics Researchers to visit Washington D.C. for policy dialogue

October 2, 2014

The Japan Foundation has carried out the KAKEHASHI Project - The Bridge for Tomorrow - as the part of the Youth Exchange Program with North America, promoted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan (MOFA). This program is to dispatch young researchers, who will assume a key role in Japan-U.S. intellectual exchange of the future, to the U.S.

With the cooperation of the Institute of Energy Economics, Japan and Japan Center for Economic Research, the Program will dispatch 9 emerging researchers to the U.S as the second group.

The participants are scheduled to go on a seven day tour and exchange opinions on energy and economic issues with emerging researchers and policy analysts of U.S. think tanks in Washington D.C., where U.S. policy related activities are carried out. They will have opportunities to deepen understanding of the U.S., build a network, and consider the future of Japan-U.S. relations. The Japan Foundation would be grateful if you could cover this interaction of the emerging researchers and those who carry similar tasks in the U.S. For further information, please contact us as indicated below.
