| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aspiring for gender fairness in the courts, we examined systems and practices in the countries of civil law, common law, and Asian countries which received western law systems, searching for the features by which judges are well informed, understand, and appreciate the realities of the social conditions, gender gaps, and the ways the parties and litigants are affected.
The findings are; judicial education and training on gender constitutes an important part of the systematic support provided for the judiciary; judges find the training useful and effective for the fair administration of justice; gender training is included in the education and training program based on the international standard; the contents of the gender training are revised and updated in close collaboration of lawyers, educators, and academics of the various disciplines relevant to legal studies; those programs and materials are applicable in Japanese context.
