Lequio Wings is celebrating its 14th anniversary.
NPO Lequio wings was established by people including the alumnus of Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers who are strongly willing to make a change in society.
Since its establishment, the organization has consistently been working on various projects under the slogan "From Okinawa to the World, Bring the World to Okinawa," including JICA training, grassroots technical cooperation projects, international exchange events such as "Fiesta Bolivia x Okinawa," "Fun Africa in Nanjyo," and "Philippine Victory Festival," as well as programs for people with disabilities to experience developing countries such as "Fly Anay!", the Asian Youth Human Resource Development and Network Formation Project, and the Okinawa International Cooperation Platform.
Lequio Wings has formulated a mid-term plan and is working to further strengthen its organization based on the plan. It is also committed to contributing to the SDGs and Okinawa's 21st Century Vision by 2030, as well as strengthening cooperation with the JICA Okinawa Center and collaborating with municipalities and various organizations in the prefecture.
