HOPS Japan Taiwan Leadership Programme

Japan Taiwan Mid-Career Executive Fellowship 

In 2022, HOPS  established a fellowship to train mid-career executives from Taiwan. We would like to encourage mid-career executives to go beyond their field of expertise to gain in-depth understanding of policy-making, decision-making process and multidisciplinary approach to leadership, and become a key figure in Japan-Taiwan relations.

HOPS Naruwan Programme

In 2013, in cooperation with the Institute of Diplomacy and International Affairs (Foreign Services Training Institute of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, ROC), HOPS launched the Naruwan Study Tour for graduate students, a study tour programme to Taiwan.
