Outline of Final Research Achievements	The immigrants from Africa to Japan have increased since the 1980s. In particular, the number of the people from West Africa (Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon, Senegal etc.) has increased. They have worked with the Japanese and lived in the Japanese community. Now many of them married the Japanese women and had children. In this study, I summarized their life events with the research and the statistical data. These are important experiences for the Japanese society.
