The Global Summit is a special event where representatives from KWN-participating schools around the world gather to exchange ideas through video production. By expressing their ideas through video media and exchanging opinions with their peers from around the world, students can expand their perspectives.
Interacting with peers from different cultures naturally enhances communication skills and deepens understanding of multiculturalism. It also offers a valuable opportunity to experience works from around the world, leading to new discoveries and building confidence.
Connecting with the world through video, this event provides a precious chance to broaden future possibilities.

Winning representatives from national contests participate
Students and children from schools that have created outstanding work selected from around the world come together to deepen their connections across borders at this special event. Held annually in an online, live format, this event offers a rare opportunity for children worldwide to connect in real-time.
As the participating countries are located in different time zones, the event allows participants to experience the atmosphere and lifestyle rhythms of various regions while engaging with one another.
During the event, children greet each other online, introduce their own country’s culture, and learn about the cultures of other countries, broadening their international perspective. By going beyond language and customs and connecting with their peers from different countries, participating children are able to experience new discoveries and emotions, fostering valuable bonds that will have a positive impact in the future.
