In September 2014, IIGR presented its 2nd Lecture Series as part of Kumamoto University’s HIGO Program (Health life science: Interdisciplinary and Glocal Oriented).
The HIGO Program aims to educate “glocal”(global + local) leaders in understanding the needs of society in Kyushu and Asia and to create local and glocal ties to resolve the issues these regions face.
The program offered stimulating lectures and students could learn about “Emergency management”, “Global career”, and “Research and entrepreneurship”.
