Nagoya International to host multiculturalism conference in April

NIS will host the Nagoya Conference on “Multiculturalism: Raising bilingual children in a multicultural world” on April 23, 2011. Anyone interested in issues related to multiculturalism here in Japan is welcome to attend this free event.

The conference aims to provide a venue to bring people together to discuss a wide range of issues that face multicultural and bilingual families.

More news to come, but in addition to a keynote speaker, several breakout sessions and time to share with other parents are planned, covering topics related to multilingual identity, crossing cultures, and language issues.
