Experience the hidden charms of Switzerland! ICC Swiss Culture Night (2023/12)

Poster

Guten Tag! Bonjour! Buongiorno! Bun di! 

What do you think of when you hear the word “Switzerland”?

Many people probably think of idyllic mountainous regions like in “Heidi” or the Alps. 

Although Switzerland is a small country about the size of Kyushu in Japan, it is also a place where diverse cultures coexist in harmony.

 The greetings above are hello in all the official languages of Switzerland: German, French, Italian, and Romansh.  

Let’s experience such hidden and profound charms of Switzerland!  

We have invited the Embassy of Switzerland, the Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and  international students at Waseda from Switzerland as supporters.  

We will enjoy apero*, an important part of Swiss culture, while listening to various stories. Apero is a time to enjoy chatting with family and friends over drinks. 

Those who are interested in Switzerland, those who are thinking of studying abroad, and those who want to enjoy intercultural exchange are all welcome!  

Please join us! 


*For apero, participants 20 or older and wish to may sample an alcoholic beverage (age checked by Waseda student ID). Soft drinks provided for those under 20 and anyone who prefers it. 

Cooperation

Embassy of Switzerland in Japan, Science & Technology Office Tokyo, Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Japan, Switzerland Tourism
