Volunteer for International Exchange

There are many international people in Kanoya studying, visiting, participating in a homestay, or even residing in Kanoya for an extended period.

The people who welcome and help these international people are volunteers.

In KIEA, we recruit those who would like to use their skills for these international people.

We also introduce volunteers to other local agencies for international exchange purposes.

There is no registration fee. Please feel free to register.
