On December 4th, Kanazawa University held the International Students Gathering 2024, attended by a total of 63 international students and faculty and staff. This gathering is held every year to further promote international exchange and understanding at our university, and to deepen ties between international students and faculty and staff.
The gathering began with an opening address by President Wada Takashi. In his speech, he declared that by being selected for the Multicultural Campus Project Toward Social Impact, our university will further accelerate its globalization and aim to realize a "Global Innovation Campus." Next, Kanazawa University Japanese Music Club performed koto, shamisen, and shakuhachi, Indonesian Student Association (PPI) sang and played the traditional bamboo instrument angklung, and Kanazawa University Aikido Club performed a demonstration, which livened up the venue.
At the venue, handmade cookies by students from Kanazawa University Special Needs School and Kanazawa University’s original Guatemalan coffee were served, and participants enjoyed chatting in a lively atmosphere.
