Utilizing a network of educational institutions in 67 countries, we promote international exchange with approximately 200 schools and organizations nationwide.

Currently, With The World utilizes its network of educational institutions in 67 countries to provide educational opportunities to approximately 200 schools and organizations across the country, allowing them to connect with people from around the world and learn about different cultures and the realities of other countries. In addition to intercultural learning and international understanding, the organization also focuses on supporting students who are not attending school.

By utilizing online learning, we are providing an environment where students who find it difficult to attend classes can participate in learning while interacting with people from both Japan and overseas through the VLP (Virtual Learning Platform). Classes cover a wide range of themes, including the world, culture, economy, and history. One male student who participated in this initiative struck up a good relationship with a student from Indonesia, which led to him studying at a university in Jakarta. International exchange, including the VLP (Virtual Learning Platform),A place to meet friends who share the same interests as you, somewhere in the world.As such, it continues to evolve.

Supporting students who are not attending school using the Virtual Learning Platform (VLP)

Currently, 54 elementary and junior high school students are using the support program for those who are not attending school, which is being implemented in collaboration with the Shinagawa Ward Educational Support Center in Tokyo. Even children who are initially reluctant to speak English in international exchange classes have seen a change in how they gradually begin to speak in English over the course of multiple sessions. Our company representative told the magazine, "We want to explore the possibilities of VLP, supporting the children's growth."

We will continue to work hard to expand the possibilities of international exchange, providing an opportunity for students to converse in real time with people of the same generation from overseas, exchange opinions in English on issues that concern them, and broaden their horizons by interacting with children from a variety of countries.
