Living Together with Japanese Language <4>
Toward Japanese for Mutual Understanding:
Focusing on the JF Standard for Japanese-Language Education

[Special Feature 076] Since its founding in 1972, the Japan Foundation ("JF") has long been involved in programs to support Japanese-language education overseas. The Foundation initially focused on training those researching Japan in order to promote understanding of the country. However, as Japan's international influence has grown, the purposes of studying the Japanese language have diversified. These include the acquisition of advanced technology, an increase in the number of people wishing to visit Japan, the introduction of Japanese as a foreign-language subject in local public education, and public interest in pop culture. As a result, there has been a demand for programs that meet the local needs of the time.
