GLOBOLA’s decision to participate in the festival was driven by their goal to raise awareness about their organization and activities among students. Informational posters highlighting GLOBOLA’s mission and initiatives were displayed at the booth. The event also fostered meaningful cultural interactions; one visitor, who had previously traveled to Sri Lanka, greeted the Sri Kankan students with the word “Ayubowan”-a versatile greeting in Sinhala that means “hello,” goodbye,” “thank you,” and more.
The proceeds from the event will be used to support GLOBOLA’s efforts to enhance the university’s global engagement initiatives. Additionally, part of the funds will contribute to the operation of another food stall event planned for December 1, which will serve the local Okayama City community.
With support from the university’s Global Center, GLOBOLA plans to build on the success of this event by enriching its activities and creating more opportunities for intercultural exchange. Through initiatives like these, students aim to develop broader global perspectives while fostering mutual understanding and cultural appreciation. Okayama University of Science remains committed to supporting these efforts and further establishing itself as a hub for meaningful cultural exchange.
