Hitotsubashi University, Center for Gender and Social Sciences Symposium
"Transgender Archives, History, Education"
April 29, 14:30-18:30
Venue: Intelligent Hall

On April 29 we will be holding an event about "Transgender Archives, History, Education" at Hitotsubashi University. Most of the event will be in Japanese, but Aaron Devor's talk will be in English (with Japanese consecutive interpretation). Aaron Devor is the world's first Chair in Transgender Studies, and also the founder of the Transgender Archives at Victoria University. Mitsuhashi Junko and Yakushi Mika, both prominent as a scholar and activist respectively in transgender issues in Japan, will also be sharing their research and findings. We will be having a panel discussion after the talks, and transgender activist and writer Hatakeno Tomato will join the discussion.

Event info in Japanese can be found below. I have included information in English about the talks below. There will be a dinner reception after the event as well, which all are welcome to join.
