2018 Minato Citizen's University at Temple University, Japan Campus (TUJ) "Community"

Read Now
 
What is a community? The dictionary defines community as “a group of any size whose members reside in a specific locality, share government, and often have a common cultural and historical heritage.” However, rapid technological development and globalization have changed the nature of our communities while expanding the meaning of what a community can be. These changes have made it difficult for us to recognize what communities we belong to and what physical and social spaces we share as communities. This is especially true in large, interconnected, global cities like Tokyo.

TUJ faculty will examine the meaning and role of community in modern society from a variety of perspectives. We hope this event will be an opportunity for you to think about what community means to you and how you fit in and interact with your community or communities.

Dates: October 22, 24, 29,  31 and November 5
Time: 19:00-20:30 (doors open at 18:30)
Venue: Temple University, Japan Campus, Azabu Hall 1F, Parliament
Cost: ¥2,500 for five lectures.
Bank transfer prior to the first session required. Non-refundable.

The Economist Events' Japan Summit 2018

Read Now
 
Japan Summit 2018
Japan is in the midst of its longest uninterrupted economic expansion since the early 1990s, when the bursting of the country’s asset price bubble sent the country into a decade-long decline. Many predicted it would never recover. However, the negative factors that pessimists cited at the time are looking manageable or less bad than once expected.  

Will the high stock prices, labor shortage and economic expansion continue? If so, for how much longer? What are the risks in the mid-long term?

The Economist Events’ Japan Summit 2018, taking place on November 14th in Tokyo, will make the case for optimism about Japan’s economy, and decipher the best course of action to ensure that Japan fulfils its enormous potential.

Key topics include:
  • An update on the Japanese economy
  • The future of work
  • Asia's new hub - competing for global talent
  • At the cutting edge - The right formula for world leading success
  • The security environment in North-East Asia - Geoeconomics and Japan's priorities for the 21st century 

​Key speakers include:
  • James Kuffner, chief executive, Toyota Research Institute - Advanced Development
  • Yoichi Funabashi, co-founder and chairman, Asia Pacific Initiative
  • Masayoshi Amamiya, deputy governor, Bank of Japan
  • Masatsugu Nagato, president and chief executive, Japan Post Holdings
  • Tomohiko Taniguchi, special adviser, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's cabinet and professor, Keio University Graduate School of System Design and Management
  • Yumiko Murakami, head of OECD Tokyo Centre, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
  • Takeshi Niinami, chief executive, Suntory Holdings
  • Sota Kato, executive director and research director, Tokyo Foundation for Policy Research
