On 31 October, delegation from the Committee on International Affairs, Economic Affairs & Port and Harbour of the Yokohama City Council in Kanagawa Prefecture came to our office. The purpose of their visit was to learn more about multiculturalism, and both the challenges and successful initiatives in Australia. Our Director, Mr Akaiwa, gave a presentation on multiculturalism policies in Australia, after which we provided the delegation with information and suggestions for improvement on multiculturalism. We also supported them by arranging their appointments and providing some information in Melbourne and Sydney. We trust that their research will be put to good use in Yokohama’s strategies.
