| Outline of Research at the Start |
This research will concentrate on answering the following research questions: 1) How have female/international/returnee junior academics been adopted into academia? 2) How have previous policies for diversity at the national and institutional levels been working in Japanese universities and academia? 3) What efforts have been made to adjust or change the academic culture and environment? 4) How can Japanese academic society increase the dynamism of and inclusiveness for junior academics who have diverse backgrounds?
|
| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explored how the academic society increase dynamics with academics who have different backgrounds such as junior, female, and international. Although the studies on underrepresented groups in academia have rarely been done in Asia, this study found that the social and cultural environment has significant factors with the language limitations and the policy initiative are not enough to overcome the current stage. In the last year of this project, an international seminar and workshop were held to discuss the results of this project and share the current situation in East Asian countries and regions.

本研究では、多様な背景をもつ若手研究者が日本のアカデミアにおいて直面する課題を探り、それぞれが力を十分に発揮するために必要とされる素養や活動内容を多次元的に整理・明確化して共有することができた。政策・制度・個人生活などをはじめ、諸要因をマクロかつ多面的に理解することは理論的に有意義である一方、ミクロレべルでは彼らの教職・研究活動に加え、日常生活で生じる課題に丁寧に向き合うことの必要性を見出すことにも繋がった。また、東アジア諸国との比較調査を行う上での基盤固めにもなった。
