Abstract:

The U.S.-Japan Conference on Cultural and Educational Interchange (CULCON) is the binational advisory group established in 1961 to further deepen the dialogue among cultural, educational and intellectual spheres, and it has been serving to submit the policy recommendations to both heads of the states in the past 60 years. As CULCON closes two sub-committees, Arts Dialogue Committee (ADC) and Educational Exchange Review Committee (ERC) in 2020, one on Japanese arts experts in the United States and another on student mobility between the United States and Japan, we will present the two reports to discuss what CULCON found important in these two areas and can be shared in the AAS community.
