Program Application Procedures

The Web site currently describes programs available in Canada for the 2008-2009 fiscal year (April 1, 2008- March 31, 2009).

Decisions on applications to Japan Foundation open programs are made once a year so that all applications may stand on an equal basis in an international competition.
