Since FY2014, the Toshiba International Foundation (TIFO), along with Asia Japan Alumni (ASJA) International, has held Toshiba Youth Club Asia (TYCA), a program to develop next-generation human resources targeting high school students of Japan and ASEAN countries. 
In FY2024, from December 21 to 28, we hosted an exchange program for high school students from Japan and five ASEAN countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Brunei). The main theme for this session was “The Practice of a Circular Economy,” and the program included site visits to related facilities and workshops led by a prominent expert in the field. A lecture was also given by a senior official from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), one of the UN’s core agencies. From a global perspective, the students formulated and presented their proposals for the direction we should aim for in the near future of 2030, as well as action plans for themselves and their teams.
