NPO Status for the UIC

In April 2007, the Umami Information Center was awarded non-profit organization status in Japan by the Office of the Governor, Tokyo Metropolitan Government.

This change in designation will allow the UIC to increase the scope of the numerous activities it carries out both in Japan and elsewhere around the world in order to disseminate accurate information about umami, which include the creation of websites & publications and the organization of seminars & symposia.
