The 15th International Education Development Forum at Kobe University

The 15th International Education Development Forum (IEDF) was held in Kobe University’s Graduate School of International Cooperation Studies (GSICS) on November 16th and 17th, 2018. This forum was an annual academic gathering for over 100 overseas and Japanese participants, including professors and graduate students from 14 invited universities. As per its tradition, IEDF’s founding fathers, including Professor Keiichi Ogawa, had thoughtfully put together this academic platform to help graduate students who were either working on their research or about to complete their studies. The IEDF also provided excellent opportunities to strengthen academic networking among students and professors in the area of education development.
