Social and International Contributions
With globalization further increasing the movement of people, our world is linked more closely than ever before, encouraging the co-existence of different cultures and languages. Intercultural understanding has never been more crucial than it is in today?s increasingly multicultural and multilingual world. Conducting research on languages, cultures and societies around the world for more than a century, TUFS considers it one of its duties to address issues stemming from the cultural gaps that can form in a global society. To carry out this duty and contribute to a more culturally and linguistically-inclusive society, TUFS established the Center for Intercultural Studies.
