Hokkaido Int. Exchange & Cooperation Center

 

The Northern Regions Center,currently HIECC (Hokkaido International Exchange and Cooperation Center), was established to actively promote the economy, culture and academic exchange between Hokkaido and other northern areas and to facilitate appropriate exchanges with other regions. By so doing ,it aimed to contribute to the country's economic, cultural and academic development, as well as the development and prosperity of northern regions in general.


Following its transition into HIECC, the organization has been committed to taking a more active role as the base for comprehensive, international exchange in Hokkaido, which aims to further develop Hokkaido, by creating affluent and vibrant local communities, through global exchange and cooperation.

 

Хоккайдский Центр международных обменов и сотрудничества (HIECC) - был создан с целью активного развития экономических, культурных, научно-технических связей между Хоккайдо и северными странами, а также содействия экономическому, культурному, научно-техническому развитию всей Японии, процветанию и развитию её северных регионов посредством связей с зарубежными странами.

 

После перехода в статус единого центра региональных международных обменов и сотрудничества, Центр стал главной организацией, отвечающей за международные связи Хоккайдо и проводящей активную работу с целью процветания и активизации региона посредством сотрудничества и обменов с другими странами.
