During the forum discussion, each of five wonderful American young professional speakers from Hawaii and five Japanese young professional speakers from Hiroshima will briefly introduce themselves and then exchange dialogue and share their views and personal experiences and stories in response to ten questions prepared by both cities on \u201c<em>Post COVID-19: Rebuilding Sustainable Business Community Through Sister Cities<\/em>\u201d.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>In this initial forum series, the Forum has paired six different U.S. and Japanese cities to host forums highlighting American and Japanese young professional speakers from their respective cities.\u00a0The first Forum was officially launched with the\u00a0<em>City of San Jose, CA and City of Okayama, Japan<\/em>.

The purpose of the forum is\u00a0for American and Japanese young professional leaders to deepen bilateral economic and cultural people-to-people relationships to foster mutual understanding, as well as to create an international cooperation between communities in the United States and Japan at a subnational level. The final report of the Forum will be\u00a0presented by JCI Japan as a bilateral recommendation to the United States-Japan Conference on Cultural and Educational Interchange (CULCON) in Japan, which will ultimately present it to the Prime Minister of Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s Next?<\/strong>The next forum will be the\u00a0<em>Omaha \u2013 Shizuoka Forum<\/em>\u00a0at the end of January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Interested in hosting your forum with us for your city and Japanese city?<\/strong>Please contact Mike Holland, a board member of KIF Japan at\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:holland@kifjapan.org\" target=\"_blank\">holland@kifjapan.org<\/a>\u00a0to give you more information!.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the ongoing bilateral forum series\u00a0U.S.-Japan Subnational Global Young Professionals Forum,we are pleased to invite you to attend as an observer to the City of\u00a0Honolulu and City of Hiroshima Young Professional Forum,\u00a0internationally organized by the\u00a0Koyamada International Foundation (KIF) America, KIF Japan\u00a0and\u00a0Junior Chamber International (JCI) Japan\u00a0andlocally hosted by the\u00a0JCI Hawaii, JCI Honolulu, JCI Hiroshima, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pkZ7m-c5g","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46454"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46454\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":46468,"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46454\/revisions\/46468"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jetwit.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
