In 2025, Discover Nikkei, a project of the Japanese American National Museum (JANM), celebrated 20 years of sharing stories about the Nikkei, people of Japanese descent who have migrated and settled throughout the world.
Highlights from Discover Nikkei’s 20th anniversary included Discover Nikkei Fest and “Nikkei Family 2: Remembering Roots, Leaving Legacies.” Discover Nikkei also traveled to the Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre in British Columbia, Canada, for the international program “Routes of Remembrance: A Discussion of the Tomoshibi Journey Bus Tour to Sites of Japanese Canadian Confinement.”
Now Discover Nikkei is planning its next phase and invites the public’s participation. Discover Nikkei connects generations and communities through its archive of Nikkei stories, life history videos, and in-person and virtual programs. The project’s content is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Japanese.
Survey responses will help the Discover Nikkei team tell Nikkei stories, develop exciting programs, continue to improve and expand the site, participate in outreach efforts, and more well into the future.
The five-minute survey is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Japanese. The deadline to fill out the survey is Sunday, March 15. Go to: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/needs-your-voice
