Interdisciplinary Workshop “Practice and Research in Least Developed Countries”

The International Undergraduate Degree Program of the School of Human Sciences (HUS) of Osaka University is organising an Interdisciplinary Workshop on “Research and Practice in Least Developed Countries” with the desire to host academic and professional discussions and explore the state of the art concerning sustainable development in LDCs.

Informed by ample experience in scientific inquiry and professional action, invited presentations will offer exclusive insights into the substantive issues affecting those countries, joined in each case by a panel of promising undergraduate students who will offer their own views and share different perspectives with the audience. This interdisciplinary exchange will serve participants to engage in meaningful conversations and consider the common areas available for collaborative work in the future.

Date: Saturday, January 29, 2022 1:00pm to 5:00pm JST

Venue: Canopy Hall(Room 51), Main building, School of Human Sciences, Osaka University

Guest speakers:
Dr. Jeet Sapkota, Associate Professor, Kwansei Gakuin University
Dr. Natsuko Imai, JICA

The workshop will be held in hybrid format in person at the School of Human Sciences and via Zoom.
The zoom link will be sent to your registered address.
