Glocal Center

Glocal Center was established by Tottori College of Nursing and Tottori College in April 2017. This center is carrying on the legacy of the former Regional Exchange Center and Northeast Asian Culture & General Research Center. By utilizing educational and research resources of the two colleges, we are working to provide additional support to the regional community in the fields of culture, education, welfare, health, and industry. We are also striving to contribute further to academic studies and to the local community.

In order to communicate a wide variety of information to communities both local and abroad, Glocal Center focuses its exchanges and research on the four sectors shown below.

※Please note that initiatives and activities of Regional Exchange Center and Northeast Asian Culture & General Research Center are now continued by Glocal Center as of 1st April 2017.

The 4 Sectors

International Research and Exchange

We are expanding our international exchange programs, research studies, and resource acquisition in Asia and other countries abroad.

Regional Studies, Education, & Exchange

We conduct research studies, extension courses, and our original “Lifelong Learning Project for Senior Citizens” to promote regional exchanges. Additionally, we communicate information to the local community though the issuing of “The Glocal Center Newsletter” , “The Glocal Annual Report“ and other informative materials.

Collaboration to Connect Local Governments, Industries and Educational Institutions

We are strengthening industry-government-academia ties by liaising and coordinating partnerships between local governments, businesses and educational institutions.

“Local Health Room” for Research & Education

In addition to networking, liaising with the community and promoting publications and education, the “Local Health Room” project serves to carry out evaluations, tests and research for an improved system.

Main Initiatives

The Center is engaged in various initiatives (see list below), accommodating the needs of the local community and providing consultative services for regional exchanges and utilization of college facilities.
Glocal Center connects the community to our two colleges by providing opportunities for locals to interact with our lecturers and students and allowing access to research and educational resources wherever possible. Additionally, we have some researchers and make every effort to carry out studies concerning the relations between the community and our colleges and support their special reseach.

How about a visit to our college?

We can arrange for you to visit our colleges and attend lectures.
We help local community members, groups and organizations with event planning by organizing short lectures (held by faculty staff) and a tour of “Kasuri (Indigo Dyeing) Museum & Kasuri Laboratory“.

Volunteer Support

Our colleges help students develop their self-management and communicative skills through volunteer activities. Glocal Center’s Volunteer Support Desk aims to help students’ volunteer work meet public needs (in areas of communal and social involvement) by liaising and supporting volunteer activities and providing necessary information.
