The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation

About The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation

The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation supports UK-Japan exchange, collaboration, and research, with a strong emphasis on building long-term relationships between institutions and professionals in both countries. It funds a mix of small project grants, travel/exchange support, and targeted academic awards, especially in Japanese studies, arts and culture, medicine and public health, science and technology, and youth engagement. A distinguishing feature is its focus on practical, cross-border partnerships that reach beyond major cities and often involve younger people or early-career researchers.
