We’re excited to announce our first official partner, the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation (GBSF) who are kindly supporting the launch of the JWA with funding towards our 2019 research visit to Japan.

We’re proud to be recognised by the GBSF as promoting mutual understanding and cooperation between the UK and Japan. Our goals are very much aligned – with a shared purpose to celebrate Japanese culture and share it with those who might ordinarily not encounter Japan in this way.
We’re looking forward to developing our relationship further as the Japan-UK Season of Culture begins.
Stay tuned for further announcements regarding funding and partnerships.
