"Gifts and I enjoy myself" is a rosemary sea.
Although it may be quite biased, we considered volunteers as gifts in a broad sense and visited Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association (CCIEA).
"International Exchange Salon-Let's get acquainted with Japanese sweets" introduced in an article on September 26 by Eitarou Sohonho! I was interviewed this time because it was hosted by "~".
In fact, this is closely related to the Chuo-ku Tourism Association, and the representative is also the same. In addition, I will explain in detail later, but on October 30, "Chuo-ku Whole Museum 2016" (co-hosted by Chuo-ku, Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association), we correspondents of Chuo-ku Tourism Association a little We will help you.
We asked Mayumi Hayashi of this association (I'm in front of the left in the photo at the bottom), who took care of Eitaro's case.
― First of all, about the Association
"Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association was established in 1991. People living in Chuo-ku independently and freely promote cultural activities and international exchange, and make "My Town Chuo-ku" a truly human nature, livable, fun, proud city, and the world It was established with the aim of making it an open city. Therefore, since its establishment, in collaboration with volunteers, we have been holding cultural events, Japanese language classes, and international exchange events such as international exchange salons that are familiar with cultural arts in Chuo-ku. "
― Name of the Association
"At the time of its establishment, the International Association began to be formed in each ward and municipality. Even in Chuo-ku, it seems that he started thinking about it. I asked a person who knew the time of its establishment, but after understanding the culture of foreigners, let's say that it crosses the culture, understands it, needs cross exchanges, and at the same time, I heard that the goal was to give this name (with" culture "and" promotion "). "
― About volunteers
"We have registered more than 300 volunteers in this year. There are 6 types of registration.
① Interpretation and translation volunteers
② Event staff volunteer
③ Japanese volunteer
④ International Exchange Salon Volunteer
⑤ Homestay Homebi Jit Volunteer
⑥ Disaster Prevention Language Volunteer
However, a staff member who teaches Japanese said, "There is such an event here, so could you help one or two people?' In some cases, I would like to recommend it. In particular, numbers 1, 2, and 6 can be registered if you come to the association window. I would like to talk to new people in various ways, "Do you have any interest? Do you have anything?' I'd like to ask you. Also, you may be asked to get a volunteer acquaintance to register. We don't have a particularly large recruitment."
"I feel like it's a little less after reviewing it once every two years. ⑤I don't have much activity at the moment. We can only introduce a public institution or an introduction from a related organization, or in such a case, we can not introduce it. Suddenly, a foreigner comes and I can't accept "I want you to tell me somewhere homestay." "
"Because No. 6 is originally the same as interpreters and translations, we only do it here for disaster prevention."
"International exchange events basically don't work without volunteers. It's in the form of creating it with volunteers."
※ The business details and events will be shown in 2 next time.
