Scenes from a press conference in Bangladesh

APFS is collaborating with the Faculty of Sociology at Rikkyo University on a three-year project-based course titled "International Human Migration and Exchange: A Case Study Between Japan and Bangladesh."

From September 7th (Monday) to 11th (Friday), 2015, we conducted interviews with 10 returning Japanese immigrants from the Vikrappur (Munsigonj) region of Bangladesh.

A group of nine people, led by Professor Tetsuo Mizukami of the Rikkyo University Faculty of Sociology, including APFS advisor Katsuo Yoshinari, traveled to the site.
We also held a press conference regarding the interviews conducted on-site, and were interviewed by numerous newspaper reporters. The press conference was covered in various newspapers.

APFS will continue to collaborate with the Faculty of Sociology at Rikkyo University to advance its projects.
