You will then be able to take advantage of the support given
to Japan 2001 events, such as coverage on this website, inclusion
in the official programme, and use of the Japan 2001 logo, which
will help the event in its marketing.
The Secretariat will give formal authorisation to proposed events
if they meet the objectives of Japan 2001. Event organisers
will be responsible for obtaining grants or sponsorship from
local or other sources.

asked to sign a Letter of Agreement. Upon receipt of this letter,
a Letter of Authorisation will be sent out immediately by the Secretariat.
