Abstract
Teachers of Kanagawa prefectural high schools who support multilingual education had their first voluntary meeting in May 2016. The aim of this meeting was to continue the development of a multilingual education in Kanagawa. Although at this stage we cannot organize meetings officially, our network has expanded and the 4th meeting is scheduled for February 2017. In my presentation, I would like to report on our activities and our beliefs about multilingual education. I hope that our modest activities will contribute to a wider recognition of a multilingual education, and that they will gradually lead to participation in projects initiated by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, which aims to strengthen foreign language education in schools.
