About us
About the Organization
Our country, Japan, is an island nation in the eastern part of the Eurasian continent, and exchanges
with other countries had required crossing oceans with strong currents until the development of
airplanes, making human interaction limited, and we have had little experience with invasions from
other countries. On the other hand, Ukraine and Poland, located in the midwestern part of Eurasia,
have few natural barriers on their borders with their neighbors, and there have been many
interactions and invasions between the nations.
Although the three countries have different topographies, climates, and histories, they are blessed
with abundant nature, have well-developed civilizations, and have nurtured a national character that
loves the arts.
For Japan, after World War II, and for Ukraine and Poland after the dissolution of the Soviet Union,
they continue to have a strong desire for peace.
Non-Profit Organization SunPanSa promotes cultural, educational, and academic exchanges to further
nurture the friendship between the three countries. We also invite displaced persons from Ukraine,
which is currently in a state of war, to Japan and support them so that they can live in peace and
security.
