Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Japan 287d ago

On 4 April 2022, Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) Japan organised its second in the series of events titled, 'Women in Japan: Updating Gender Roles in Society'. The 'Women in Japan' series aims to explore current developments in Japan's gender environment. Although Japan faces a variety of gender-related issues, our event series will concentrate specifically on the political and economic fields, where the Japanese government has been focusing policy efforts for some time without significant success, and where Japan lags behind other countries. We will also address social issues which might be underlying contributory factors in these areas. The 'Women in Japan: Updating Gender Roles in Society' webinar focused on learning best practices from Scandinavian countries (Norway) that have been successful in their gender policy on the societal front to understand how they have achieved their current gender situation by comparing it with the present state in Japan. #KASJapan #WomeninJapan
