International Symposia
The International Symposia of ISSA are academic meetings carried out in a global perspective. At these meetings, Shinto is studied broadly as a tradition which does not provoke debates with other religions. Reports of the symposia are published in Japanese and/or English in books or as DVDs. Please contact our Tokyo Headquarters office for more details.
