Research Center for Human Rights (RCHR) is a reorganized facility of Osaka City University devoted to research on human rights issues. As well as fully succeeding a more than a quarter century research efforts done by the former Dowa Mondai Research Institute, we stretch our focus on to gender, ethnic, disability and other minority/human rights issues. The former Dowa Mondai Research Institute was established in 1972. It was reorganized into Research Center for Human Rights in April, 2000.
My major is Gender Studies and I teach some courses of Gender Studies for undergraduates and graduate students.
One course, I’m focusing on sexuality, sexual violence and sex trading. Another course, I’m focus on gender inequality in family, education, labor market based on gender role division system in Japan.
The Women’s Studies Association of Japan is organized in order to firmly establish women’s studies in Japan in 1979. I started my career as a researcher in women’s history in Japan, especially in modern rural.
My recent academic interest is for women’s Social rights.
