The Foundation for the Welfare and Education of the Asian People (FWEAP) launched a program in 1978 to invite officials engaging in social welfare activities from different Asian countries and regions to Japan to learn about common themes related to social welfare and deepen their understanding. It was renewed in 2023 to become a program for “mutual learning between different countries and regions.” This new program enables participants to keep in touch online with fellow participants after returning home, so that solutions and challenges can be shared between participating countries. In the future, it plans to address common issues on the theme of “Social Inclusion” over a period of several years.
