About Japan
SHARING
We share Japan with the world. With our website Nippon.com, available in seven key global languages including Japanese, we offer a nonprofit, nongovernmental perspective on all things Japanese to a global readership. Our team of translators and editors includes native speakers of all our languages with decades in and deep knowledge of today’s Japan, dedicated to sharing it clearly with the world.
CONNECTING
We connect people, organizations, and more to enhance Japan’s communication with the rest of the world. As a public interest foundation, we seek to contextualize Japan in the global community as we craft opportunities for Japan and its partners worldwide to consider and discuss the issues that face us all.
SUPPORTING
We work with Japan’s top communicators and idea-makers who want to share their insight with the world, and with everyone around the globe who wants to connect with Japan. We also offer training and skills to people who want to work at the forefront of this intercultural arena, further supporting those who strive to build lasting connections.
About
the Nippon
Communications Foundation
The Nippon Communications Foundation strives to promote understanding of Japan through web-based publishing and other activities to convey information on Japanese politics, economy, society, and culture to a diverse global readership.
At the same time, in our capacity as a nongovernmental organization, we develop and implement a range of other projects aimed at contributing to better international understanding and fostering global human resources in numerous fields.
Greetings
from the President
Akasaka Kiyotaka
In recent years, major nations around the world have steadily enhanced their messaging capabilities on the global stage. Japan, however, has seen its international presence wane.
The Nippon Communications Foundation was launched to counter this trend. By sharing information on Japan’s politics, economy, society, culture, and more on our multilingual website, Nippon.com, we aim to boost understanding of the country and to extend its influence worldwide.
