For more than 90 years, ISC conferences have been led by students across Japan, Korea, China, and the United States. Each year reflects the challenges and hopes of its generation — from rebuilding trust after World War II to navigating today’s global issues.

Together, these programs make up the world’s longest-running student-led exchanges.
