(#9) 20th Anniversary Donation Project: University of Kansas Center for East Asian Studies

To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the JOI Program, the Japan Foundation donated the Japanese cultural items to the former JOI host sites not only to support their Japan-related outreach activities and programs, but also to re-connect for additional collaborations in the future. The former JOI host sites and current JOI coordinators shared the fun videos using the Japanese cultural items.
