Interest Form: Uchinaa Junior Study Program

(NOTE: Information and eligibility subject to change year to year)

​The Uchinaa Junior Study Program (formerly the Junior Study Tour) is an annual immersion program that brings middle and high school students to their ancestral islands. Sponsored by the Okinawa Prefectural Government, elected students are given an all-expense-paid trip to study Okinawan history, culture, society, and diaspora, with an emphasis on nature, peace, and identity. Students will also be given the opportunity to interact with Uchinaanchu from around the world as well as local students in Okinawa, with the goal of creating strong bonds and deepening the students' understanding of their Okinawan roots. The program also hopes to broaden the international outlooks of local Okinawan students, nurturing the generation that will shoulder the "Uchinaa Network".

PLEASE NOTE: This interest form is for members of the Okinawa Association of America, Inc. (OAA) in Southern California. If you are outside of Southern California, please apply through your nearest Okinawa association, kenjinkai, or club.
