The Ryoichi Sasakawa Young Leaders Fellowship Fund (Sylff) fosters global leaders who can overcome differences such as nationality, race, religion, etc. to solve various problems that exist in society. Founded in 1987, there are currently 69 Syllf institutions in 44 countries and regions around the world, with three schools in Japan: APU, Waseda University, and Keio University. In 2010, APU established a scholarship for graduate students in the humanities and social sciences who are expected to become future leaders with the $1,000,000 endowment from the Sylff program.
