INTERNATIONAL EXCHANGE
International understanding beyond differences
1. INTERNATIONAL INTERCULTURAL MURAL EXCHANGE (IIME)
JAM has coordinated IIME since 2006 and promoted international understanding among children / students in the world based on
school education. ICT and ART connect children in one place with children with a quite diff erent background in a far place. They get to
understand each other over diff erences through thinking global issues together and exchanging opinions and ideas via videoconferences
and emails using internet and fi nally create one big mural in cooperation by painting half by half. This project will raise the next generation into global citizens and open the door of our future of co-existing with each other.
