On November 11, 2021, Waseda University\u2019s LGBTQ initiatives were awarded the Silver Recognition in the PRIDE Index, an evaluation index for respecting LGBTQ and other sexual minorities in the workplace formulated by the voluntary organization \u201cwork with Pride.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since its founding, the University has opened its doors to a wide variety of people. Through Waseda Vision 150, an institutional initiative to mark the University\u2019s 150th anniversary in 2032, we aim to rapidly improve the quality of education and research and continue to be a University that contributes to the world.<\/p>\n

Especially in recent years, we have tackled a number of issues with the aim of further development from the perspective of promoting diversity in education, research, and employment. As part of these efforts, we have applied for the \u201cPRIDE Index\u201d and in the process of application, we have deepened our awareness of the further issues in the future in order to create a comfortable and safe workplace for the LGBTQ community.<\/p>\n

We will continue to respect and promote diversity in order to build a fair work environment in which diverse people work together, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.<\/p>\n
