Japanese Society

A society that promotes Japanese culture and brings a community together!

About us

Our Society focuses on Japanese culture, giving students the opportunity to experience various Japanese traditions, customs, and cultural aspects here at Herts.

The primary aim of our Society is to serve as a bridge between cultures, promoting various aspects of Japanese heritage while fostering integration among students from diverse backgrounds who share a common interest in Japan. We create an inclusive environment where cultural exchange flourishes, enabling students to broaden their perspectives and forge lasting friendships. Additionally, we take pride in offering a warm and welcoming space for Japanese exchange students, providing them with a sense of community and the opportunity to connect with fellow Japanese students as well as individuals from around the globe who are eager to learn about their culture.
