The 8th Convention of AOTS Alumini Societies

The 8th Convention of AOTS Alumini Societies

At the critical juncture of its 50th anniversary, AOTS Alumni Societies (AASs) and AOTS will have serious discussions, based upon the precise recognition of the current situation of AOTS and AASs, seeking for the better forms of cooperation and collaboration in order to contribute to formulation of an international society with the value of "Coexistence and Growing Together" in the 21st century. We hope to mark together a first step toward a next half-century after drawing up possible collaborative activities utilizing the AASs' global network.
