Recording rehearsal

The recording began on the afternoon of Sunday, February 26, 2023, and the program proceeded in a one-on-one dialogue with the program host, Hiroaki Chikano (Deputy General Manager of Japan TV’s Economic Department and Commentator).

Mr./Ms. Hayashida was the youngest of the past performers of “Policy Media,” but it was wonderful to see her give a presentation with dignity and respond to various questions from Mr. Chikano by firmly conveying her own opinions.

It was strongly conveyed that this was a presentation and policy proposal that had been created through the efforts of the team.

3. Contents of the report

(1) Research on the role of inter-university collaborative organizations in supporting students with disabilities at universities and other institutions

Summary of Research

Academic support for students with disabilities (reasonable accommodations in education, etc.) is an important issue for each university, but at present, there is no small difference in the status of initiatives. On the other hand, due to the nature of the field that is in a transitional period, there is a limit to the accumulation of expertise, know-how, resources, etc. that can be handled by each university alone, so we believe that a scheme in which each university and other institutions work together to solve problems is effective.
The purpose of this research is to investigate and research the efforts of inter-university collaboration organizations to promote support for students with disabilities at each university.

Principal Investigator

Kyoto University Student Services Organization Associate Professor Jun Murata

(2) Research on the actual state of long-term community collaboration activities by university students and local organizations in Kyoto City and how to support them

Summary of Research

This study objectively clarifies the actual situation of long-term community collaboration activities between university students and local organizations in Kyoto City, and examines how universities and related organizations involved in these activities should provide support in the future.
Specifically, through questionnaires, we will identify student organizations (seminars and university-approved organizations) that are engaged in long-term community collaboration activities in Kyoto City, and clarify the factors and issues that led to the establishment of these organizations in the community, mainly through interviews. In addition, while learning from the knowledge of advanced experiences from all over the country, we will consider the role that universities and their affiliated organizations should play and how to effectively support university students who are engaged in ongoing community collaboration activities.

Principal Investigator

Kyoto Tachibana University, Faculty of Business Administration, Department of Business Administration, Assistant Professor Masayuki Ota
