The Great Britain Sasakawa
Foundation
(since 1983)
The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation was
established in 1983 after Ryoichi Sasakawa met a number of senior British
figures in London to discuss the international situation and, in particular,
Anglo-Japanese relations. They concluded that it was in the interests of both
countries that greater efforts should be made to enhance mutual appreciation and
understanding, with an emphasis on providing British people with more
opportunities to discover Japan and giving Japanese people better opportunities
to learn about the United Kingdom. The Trustees are drawn from distinguished
individuals in great Britain and Japan. The Biennial Sasakawa Prize for Haiku is
run by the British Haiku Society.
