What is TIME?
TIME (Tottori International
Multicultural Exchange) is a volunteer citizens' group dedicated to
promoting international understanding in Tottori Prefecture. It was founded in
1988 and works with foreign residents, Japanese citizens and international
organizations to promote global awareness, intercultural exchange and mutual
understanding.
What does TIME do?
1.
Newsletter: TIME Tottori
We publish our newsletter, TIME Tottori,
twice a year. This includes reports on TIME events, articles on global themes,
profiles of local people and groups working for international understanding,
news from Tottori people living or traveling overseas, book reports on cross-cultural
understanding and descriptions of international activities in Tottori.
2. Public
seminars and workshops on international topics.
Join our annual TIME seminars to learn about foreign countries,
topics linked to language and culture, and global issues such as peace and the
environment.
3. TIME
Festival:
Each fall, we hold an exciting 1-day international festival for
foreign residents and local people which features multicultural displays,
performances and events.
4. Help to
foreign students and residents
Twice a year, we organize a TIME bazaar (spring and fall) designed
to recycle used goods from local residents and provide them at low cost to
foreign students.
5. Social
activities
We also organize annual activities such as parties, excursions and
dinners. Join us!
