The first batch of six Pakistani youths is set to visit Japan from December 10 to 17, 2024, as part of the Japan-East Asia Network of Exchange for Students and Youths (JENESYS) program. This youth exchange initiative, organized by the Japanese government, aims to foster mutual respect and understanding between Japan and the Asia-Pacific region.
A total of 41 young participants from SAARC countries, including Pakistan, will take part in the program, which this year focuses on the theme of "Energy." During their week-long stay, participants will engage in lectures and visits to explore Japan's economy, society, history, politics, and diplomatic relations, as well as its diverse cultural landscape.
The Embassy of Japan in Islamabad hosted a pre-departure orientation session for the Pakistani participants, where H.E. Mr. AKAMATSU Shuichi, Ambassador-designate of Japan to Pakistan, shared his insights and advice.

Ambassador Shuichi expressed his hope that the participants would act as cultural ambassadors, fostering greater mutual understanding and strengthening ties between Japan and Pakistan.
The JENESYS program annually invites youth from SAARC countries, aiming not only to build their capacities but also to enhance regional collaboration and understanding.
