Welcome to the Alumni Network of African Students in Japan (ANASJA).
ANASJA was founded on the premise that the experiences, knowledge, and relationships gained in Japan should continue to create value, especially in contributing to African development, long after graduation. Our alumni are uniquely positioned to bridge Africa and Japan, accelerate innovation, promote culture, and share global perspectives to drive meaningful impact.
Through ANASJA, we aim to connect the alumni, support mentorship and collaboration, and open pathways for professional growth, leadership, and shared opportunities. Whether you are a recent graduate or a seasoned professional, this network is your home. We pride ourselves as ex-Japan scholars, trained to become the best, and therefore we remain a vital resource for promoting African development and acting as bridges for business, technology, innovation, and cultural exchange between Africa and Japan.
Therefore, I invite you to engage with ANASJA, participate in our programs, and be part of a united alumni community that strives to shape stronger Africa-Japan partnerships for the future.
Together, we are stronger.
Jerry Muganda,
President, Alumni Network of African Students in Japan
