The Japan World Exposition 1970 Commemorative Fund Grant program (JEC Fund Grant program) was established in commemoration of the success of the Japan World Exposition of 1970 (Expo ’70), the theme of which was “Progress and Harmony for Mankind,” to convey the legacy and ideals of Expo ’70 to future generations. The following kinds of projects are supported:
- Projects contributing to international cultural exchange and international goodwill
- International projects in the fields of academic study, education, social welfare, medical care, and hygiene and public health
- International projects designed for conservation of nature and the human environment
Projects with either of the following themes are given preference in screening:
- To inherit and evolve the idea of Expo ’70 toward EXPO 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan (Expo 2025), resulting in the creation of values for a new era, and contribute to the success of Expo 2025
- International conferences that qualify for the JEC Fund Grant are limited to meetings in basic natural sciences, excluding engineering and medical science, in which operational funds are deemed to be insufficient despite the importance of the meetings
