CEEJA
Created in 2001, the European Center for Japanese Studies in Alsace (CEEJA) aims to develop exchanges with Japan in the economic, cultural, tourist and academic fields. Thanks to a large network in Europe and Japan, the association proposes and leads innovative projects. The economic component of CEEJA has become the Cluster JapanTech Grand Est created in August 2020. CEEJA is financially supported by the European Community of Alsace.
