On 2-8 March 2022, the JENESYS online programme, organised by Japan International Cooperation Center (JICE) and themed “JENESYS Youth Sports Exchange (Rugby)”, welcomed participation from youths hailing from ASEAN countries and Timor-Leste. Over the course of the programme, several lectures were delivered that touched on, among others, physical education in Japan as well as education through sports. It is hoped that the participants enjoyed the exchanges among youths from each different country, and that the programme enriched their perspectives about sports and education.

This program is part of the Japan’s Friendship Ties Programs JENESYS2021 “Inbound, Outbound and Follow Up Project” supported by the Government of Japan through Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF).
