OUR ACTIVITIES

Our Activities

Kusatsu International Friendship Association (KIFA) is a volunteer-based private organization that operates with annual membership fees and city subsidies.
KIFA has four different divisions: the International/Domestic Exchange Division, the International Understanding Division, the Multicultural Society Division, and the Public Relations Division. KIFA develops projects focusing on people-to-people exchanges in a way that only the private sector can.

We develop projects to deepen mutual understanding between Japanese and foreigners in the community through interaction. For foreign residents, we also continue to offer volunteer Japanese language classes and organize gatherings to connect with the local residents.
