Peure Utari Society
Since its foundation, centering on social gathering for Utari and Japanese
youths in Hokkaido, the Peure Utari Society has been engaged in activities
aiming to actualize a society in which the oppression, resistance, prejudice
and discrimination seen in the history of the Ainu are eliminated, and
one in which peole understand each other, as the Japanese and human beings,
and refrain from hurting one another.
The Society also contributes immensely to the promotion and the facilitation
of research on the Ainu culture through cultural stadies, investigative
reports and participating in educational research meetings.
