International Workshop
“Understanding Cultural Diversity in Asia:
Analysis of Second Wave of Asian Student Survey”
The future of Asia is on younger generations. How do they perceive the past, present, and the future of Asia? How they design their own career and study plan? How these individual desires construct the future of Asia?
In this workshop, more than 20 students, both undergraduate and postgraduate in Waseda University and University of Tokyo who were involved in Second Wave of Asian Student Survey, will present their research findings in the presence of prominent Asian sociologists who work for the universities from each of which the students collected 200 samples. The survey was possible by receiving financial support by the Research and Information Center for Asian Studies (RICAS), Institute for Advanced Studies on Asia.
The workshop will provide a platform for the future sociological collaboration between the Leading Graduate School “Integrated Human Sciences Program for Cultural Diversity” (IHS) at the University of Tokyo and other leading universities in Asia.
