On 16 January, officials from municipalities in Miyazaki Prefecture, who are participating in the Miyazaki Prefecture Municipalities Development Association’s overseas training programme, visited the CLAIR Sydney office.
CLAIR Sydney provided them with a briefing and Q&A session on Australia’s administration, political and economic overview, and multiculturalism policies.
The officials were particularly enthusiastic about the explanation of differences from Japan, such as the lack of a certificate of residence and the absence of the municipality’s name in address notation. During the Q&A session, CLAIR Sydney staff shared knowledge gained through their work, such as the new sister city relationship in Australia.
CLAIR Sydney will continue to support Japanese local governments involved in developing human resources and conducting research on advanced practices through overseas training.
