JICA International Conference in Okinawa, November 14/15
Posted By Dave on November 11th, 2009
A few of the readers of this site are living in Okinawa, so I thought I’d throw this out there for those of you that like to get out into the community. The annual JICA International Festival in Okinawa will be taking place this coming weekend (November 14th & 15th, 2009) at the JICA Centre in Urasoe City. JICA is a Japanese NGO and the Centre in Urasoe has people there from a number of different countries (mainly, but not limited to, developing countries). At the festival they have presentations about their countries and areas, talks on global issues, free trade and all that kinda stuff. There is also music and events going on during the day. I’ve taken part in the conference for the past 3 years with my school as they have held a Model UN conference there, and a good number of people attend.
I’ll probably head there on the 14th, but wanted to let people know about it as the advertising isn’t what I would call “extensive”. Below are the flyers for the event.

Unfortunately there are no comments yet. Maybe this was pitifully boring or maybe it's brand new on this site. Either way, leave a comment. What harm could it do?
