JF digital collection
- Let your curiosity open the doors to
Japan and the world. - The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many aspects of our society and individual lives, and greatly limited our opportunities to connect with one another. Although international cultural exchange programs around the world have also been curtailed, we believe that this situation shouldn’t discourage our innate curiosity to one another.
Since the pandemic began, we have been witnessing a surge in online programs worldwide –a testament that even amidst a global pandemic, people are still seeking connections that transcend culture and customs.
As Japan Foundation’s response, we are proud to present JF digital collection, an online platform showcasing a variety of online programs created by JF headquarters and our offices overseas.
We hope this will serve as a way to bridge the gap between our audience, Japan, and the world.
