Discover Nikkei is an international network celebrating cultural diversity and exploring global and local identities. The project connects generations and communities by sharing stories and perspectives of the Nikkei, people of Japanese descent who have migrated and settled throughout the world. Discover Nikkei is a community website focused on Nikkei identity, culture, and history. The project aims to provide an inviting space for the community to share, explore, and connect with each other through diverse Nikkei stories and experiences.

Established in 2005, Discover Nikkei is a cornerstone program of the Nikkei Legacy Project, a project of the Japanese American National Museum with major funding by The Nippon Foundation. It serves as a platform for individuals, organizations, and communities to come together and contribute to celebrating Nikkei heritage. The project is supported by a global network of consultants, translators, volunteers, community partners, and individuals, emphasizing the rich relationships and connections that have been fostered.
