“Connect and Collaborate” Tsunagu Research Project is back in 2021. The application is now open!

Tsunagu Research Project:

Leave a Nest will launch the Tsunagu Research Project for the 2nd year. “Tsunagu” in Japanese means to connect. Tsunagu Research Project’s main essence is for school students specifically, middle and high school students in ASEAN and Japan to get connected and collaborate with each other to practice research skills to help in solving social issues that exist to continue producing good solutions. It is the way in creating a knowledge-sharing circle according to the respective experience and expertise of young researchers by creating a knowledge circle comprised of sharing experience, working together, and discussing ideas. Last year, students from 4 countries (Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, and Japan), 7 schools in total 14 teams got together under this program. This is the unique platform for educational projects which allows the engagement between students by sharing knowledge.
