Survey on Multicultural Coexistence (For Foreign Residents)

Request for questionnaire

　In preparation for our "Second Fukui Prefectural Multicultural Coexistence Plan", we are gathering many prefectural residents' opinions. We hope that Japanese and foreigners alike will recognize each other as fellow residents and work together as members of the regional society.
*Fukui Prefectural Multicultural Coexistence Plan shows how Fukui Prefecture plans to engage in creating societal cohesiveness in an increasingly diverse Fukui, introducing our basic definitions of multicultural coexistence and the type of policies we intend to pursue to achieve it.
　All responses are anonymous. After we gather and analyze the responses, we intend to publish our results. We are looking to hear honest opinions from everyone.
