The 18th International Education Department Forum at the University of Tsukuba

The 18th International Education Department Forum (IEDF) was held at the University of Tsukuba on November 5th and 6th, 2021. This forum was an annual academic gathering for international and Japanese participants, including professors and graduate students from 12 invited universities. IEDF’s founding fathers, including Professor Keiichi Ogawa, had put together this academic platform to help graduate students who were either working on their research or completing their studies. In addition, the IEDF provided valuable opportunities to strengthen academic networking among students and professors in the area of education development.
