Kyoto Multi-culture Support Network
The “Kyoto Multi-culture Support Network” is a network of support groups for foreign people and individuals who conduct activities in the Kyoto and Shiga areas. Its purpose is to build relationships among those groups based on cooperation, work together on site and create a networked environment.
Main Activities
