PROJECTS

ABOUT

Empirical research towards building an inclusive future society from the perspectives of social sciences and other fields GLIF is one of the four pillars of the Kubota-University of Tokyo Collaborative Creation Projects

An inclusive society is a future which we should pursue for better life of all. In 2015, the Sustainable Development Goals of 17 were unanimously approved at the General Assembly of United Nations and the major norm behind them is "no one is left behind.". To realize an inclusive society in which everyone can feel happy, it is necessary to guarantee a certain level of well-being for people in all over the world.
