Fifth Chile–Japan Academic Forum
Kyoto, Japan | September 29 – October 3, 2025

Building on a decade of academic exchange and research collaboration between Chile and Japan, the Fifth Chile–Japan Academic Forum will take place in Kyoto. This biannual forum brings together researchers and institutions from both countries to strengthen ties and explore joint initiatives across diverse fields of knowledge.

Join us as we continue this tradition of dialogue and cooperation.

The forum organization is led by the main universities of Chile and Japan, University of Chile (UChile), Catholic University of Chile (UC) and University of Concepción (UdeC), in collaboration with the University of Tokyo (Tōdai) and Kyoto University (Kyōdai).
