Learn the realities of how politicians and assembly members are born!
Young people in Japan are becoming seriously disengaged from politics.
Women’s political participation has also fallen to one of the lowest levels ever, ranking 113th in the world.
We planned this course to help people feel more connected to politics and elections.
This course will be held via video streaming, so you can watch it whenever you like.
We look forward to receiving applications from many participants!
