Concerning the Crisis in Fukushima Prefecture
As you know, there was a very serious accident at the nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture. However, Sapporo on Hokkaido Island is safe because it is more than 600 kilometers away from Fukushima Prefecture on Honshu Main Island, and has not experienced any effects from this accident. We hope that you will feel comfortable enough to participate in the conference.
Registration, Program, Accommodation, and Venue/Transportation Information coming soon!
