Abstract
This book serves to develop a strong internal narrative that connects the diverse dimensions of intercultural experiences, ranging from scholarly work on Japanese
immigration history, language pedagogy on intercultural competences, to personal accounts by the people from diverse cultural and linguistic background. In other
words, it offers those who are keenly aware of the importance of the development of a global mindset with a platform or common ground to share their endeavours
formerly pigeonholed and isolated, by fostering interest in community engagement and partnership building.
