Japan Currents Series
In 2019, NAJAS inaugurated the “Japan Currents” public affairs series, with support from the Embassy of Japan in Washington DC. The series involved events in fourteen different cities, each hosted by the local Japan-America Society, and composed of speakers from Japan, the U.S. and the local community. Public affairs topics of interest relating to Japan vary by location. Each host selected the theme and the reports of the events demonstrate the depth and variety of interest in Japan across the country. As the only national public affairs program series focusing on the US-Japan relationship, we believe Japan Currents serves an important part of the mission of Japan-America Society network. We are grateful for the support of the Embassy of Japan for this program.
In partnership with the Sun & Star Program on Japan and East Asia at the SMU Tower Center for Public Policy and International Affairs
