This round-table discussion will welcome non-Japanese residents who have made Japan their home and plan to spend the rest of their lives here together with professionals and volunteers working in elderly care. An international group of Kyoto residents plans to set up a support network and would like to reach out to more people, especially speakers of languages other than English or Japanese, and to find out the issues that people are dealing with and their concerns. The round-table discussion will be in English, Japanese, and French and will cover topics such as: i) living on a pension, ii) physical and mental health care, iii) social activities, iv) the kaigo 介護care system, v) examples of different types of care homes, vi) care services, vii) home hospice systems, and other topics that participants wish to raise. We want to work together to gather and share information, such as websites and books, and provide support for one another through this initial discussion and the network we create.
