| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
The current research project was initally delayed, but I was able to make some progress. The research design and the analysis were improved, allowing me to present the findings at an international conference. Moreover, the explanation of gender inequalities in learning outcomes was used to write a book. The manuscript of the book was submitted to Kakenhi for the application of a grant for research publication.

Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
The research progressed rather smoothly because I was able to reach the milestones I expected to reach this fiscal year. For example, I wanted to compile one part of the research into a book, which I have been able to do.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
I plan to compile the analysis on rural-urban inequalities into research article or a book for publication, depending on factors like time and availibility of funds. I plan to present the overall findings at a conference, or if budget allows me, organize an event (e.g., a workshop) where I can share the research findings with ministry of education officials in one of the countries investigated.
|
| Causes of Carryover |
Next fiscal year, I plan to attend conferences and present the overall research findings. If the budget allows me, I will attend or organize a workshop in one of the countries investigated, events through which I can disseminate my research findings.
