Foreign residents in Japan are integral members of their local communities. At CLAIR’s Multiculturalism Promotion Division, we support local governments and organizations in fostering inclusive, multicultural communities through information sharing, policy support, and personnel development.
Our work includes providing essential disaster response support and multilingual information, assisting in the planning and development of policies for multicultural coexistence, and offering training for Multicultural Coexistence supporters. We also promote collaboration with NGOs and NPOs to strengthen community partnerships and support the activities of regional internationalization associations, enhancing local initiatives that promote international exchange and integration. Additionally, we provide a wide range of multilingual resources to assist the international community throughout Japan.
