On October 28, 2022, we invited Ms. Saki Shimamura (Academic Specialist, Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology, The University of Tokyo), who is a hearing-impaired person, a supporter, and a researcher while raising two children, to give a public lecture moderated by Professor Hiroshi Fujimoto of the School of Human Sciences. 71 people from inside and outside the university attended.<\/p>\n

Ms. Shimamura began her lecture by sharing a story about her own childhood experience with hearing loss. She spoke about how she had never met anyone with a hearing impairment until she graduated from high school, and how she had no opportunity to objectively understand her own hearing difficulties and was unable to verbalize them.<\/p>\n

She also shared her experience of working as a speech-language pathologist after graduation, as well as recognizing the need for support during her undergraduate years at the university.<\/p>\n

Currently, while studying at graduate school, she is also focusing on raising children and supporting students with disabilities. In relation to the theme of the lecture, “Choice,” she said, “Ideally, I would like to see a society in which people do not have to explain why a choice is necessary for them to the extent that it becomes burdensome for those involved\u201d; “I hope that more and more people will be able to communicate flexibly with others without being too fixated to their own values\u201d.<\/p>\n

For many participants, it was an opportunity to think for themselves about how to realize an inclusive society in which diverse individualities are respected.<\/p>\n
