The Graduate School of Global Governance delivered special lectures on the theme of “Challenges in Modern Governance” in collaboration with the University of Nimes on March 10 in Nimes, France.
The special lectures were delivered by three lecturers: Professor KIMURA Shunsuke, Dean, Graduate School of Global Governance, and Professor IZUMO Akiko and Professor TSUJI Masami from the Graduate School of Global Governance, Meiji University. From the University of Nimes, two professors gave lectures on their areas of expertise.
In addition, 21 graduate students in public policy from the University of Nimes participated in the special lectures face-to-face, and six undergraduate and graduate students from Meiji University participated online. Questions, answers, and lively opinions were exchanged about the evaluation after the municipal mergers in Japan, the specific details of AI utilization by local governments, and other subjects.
The special lectures this time were the third lectures that were held in collaboration with overseas universities, following those held with the Universitas Indonesia and Khon Kaen University in Thailand. We will continue to disseminate the education and research at our graduate schools to Asia and Europe on a global scale through special lectures.
