The Daiwa Anglo-Japanese Foundation is a UK charity, established in 1988 with a generous benefaction from Daiwa Securities Co Ltd. The Foundation’s purpose is to support closer links between Britain and Japan.
It does this by:
- Making grants available to individuals, institutions and organisations to promote links between the UK and Japan across all fields of activity
- Awarding scholarships to outstanding British graduates to study Japan and its language
- Organising a year-round programme of events to increase understanding of Japan in the UK
Daiwa Foundation Japan House, the London-based headquarters, acts as a centre for UK-Japan relations in Britain by offering a wide programme of lectures, seminars, book launches, courses and exhibitions as well as meeting rooms for Japan-related activities.
