Youth Exchange (Altervoice)

About Altervoice


As a gathering place for young people with foreign connections, we hold Altervoice Exchange Meetings, Altervoice Camps, and Altervoice World Speech events every year.

Altervoice Exchange Meeting

Held every June. Born from the voices of young people who want to connect with peers with foreign connections outside of school. A place to share dreams and anxieties and meet others in similar circumstances.

Altervoice Camp

Held every November at Nojima Youth Training Center. A two-day, one-night retreat with the same activities as the Altervoice Exchange Meeting, plus cooking dinner dishes from various countries together and holding a presentation on the second day.

Altervoice World Speech

Held every March. Started in FY2025, this speech event features junior high and high school students with foreign connections, as well as alumni. Part 1 features themed speeches, and Part 2 features a panel discussion.

For members: Speech manuscripts are available on the members page.
