Global House
The Global House was built as part of a project to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Founding of International Christian University, aiming to provide an international, Christian, and democratic residential environment for university students. Founded as the “University of Tomorrow” in the middle of the 20th century, today ICU greets the 21st century, in which the problems of “tomorrow” involve not only the way different nations should relate to each other, but the way people should live as “Global Citizens.” Out of the hope that people from all parts of the globe will come together in this building to create a “community without borders,” the building has been given the name “Global House.”
