果林國小國際交流社團-勇闖日本APCC

認識APCC

What's APCC？

The Asian-Pacific Children’s Convention (APCC) in FUKUOKA was founded by the Fukuoka Junior Chamber and was part of the 1989 Asian-Pacific Exposition, an event to celebrate Fukuoka City’s 100th anniversary. The APCC is a civic movement which is funded by local governments as well as supported by donations from corporate sponsors and the APCC Supporters’ Association. Historically, Fukuoka has been a contact point for cultural exchange between Japan and other countries in Asia. The APCC is a continuation of this tradition as we head towards a digital age of international communication. By holding the APCC, we hope to foster “Global Citizens”, who are able to think of the world beyond national boundaries and desire world “Peace and Co-existence”. In the hope of making the dream come true, children who will shape the world in the 21st century gather together in Fukuoka and gain mutual understanding of different cultures and traditions through home stay and cultural exchange. APCC is currently known as the biggest international event for children in not only Japan, but the world, and is conducted under the cooperation of local and international citizens, government and business institutes. APCC is no longer just a cultural exchange event, but a proven project that has supported children into becoming “Global Citizens”.

    亞太兒童會議(APCC)是由福岡市青年商會所成立，是1989年的亞洲-太平洋的萬國博覽會，也是慶祝福岡市成立100週年活動的一部分。APCC是由地方政府出資，以及由捐贈企業贊助和APCC支持者協會支持的公民運動。 從歷史上看，福岡市一直是日本在亞洲和其他國家之間文化交流的重要城市，而APCC則延續了此一傳統，並朝著科技與國際交流的時代邁進。透過APCC活動，希望能培養跨越國界的「世界公民」，並追求世界「和平與共存」。為了讓此美夢成真，我們將未來將影響21世紀的世界兒童齊聚在福岡進行不同文化與傳統的認識，並透過寄宿家庭及文化交流促此彼此的相互理解。APCC目前不僅是日本，也是全球最大由政府及企業機構合作的最大國際交流活動。所以APCC不再僅僅是一個文化交流的盛會，同時也是培養孩子成為成熟的「世界公民」的重要活動。
