Poster<\/a><\/p>\n

ICC’s highly popular Speak Your Mind Camp is back!\u00a0And this time we’ll be bringing together students from 3 East Asian countries: Japan, China & Korea!<\/p>\n

Out of the roughly 5,000 international students at Waseda, almost 70 percent are from China and Korea.\u00a0This provides an excellent opportunity for students from all 3 countries to interact and get to know each other better.\u00a0These 3 countries have close diplomatic relations and intertwined histories dating far back.\u00a0In recent years however, it is pop-culture that has become a major medium for exchange among young people in these nations.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, due to their cultural and geographical proximity, each country has a variety of stakes and interests, and so along with friendship, friction is also a part of their relationship.\u00a0Especially with the recent territorial issues.\u00a0For those interested in trilateral relations, the ICC will hold a 3-day exchange camp at Kamogawa seminar house where students can share their true opinions with one another on a variety of issues.\u00a0Set aside any negative sentiments, think about the future together, and say what’s on your mind as you relax in the mountains.<\/p>\n
