As leading social science schools of respective countries, the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences (EHESS) in France and Hitotsubashi University in Japan are committed to academic research on the values of democracy and human rights, which the two societies share. To deepen our mutual academic exchange in this important field, we are delighted to hold the first joint workshop for Ph.D. students. It will provide a great opportunity for Ph.D. students to present their papers, get to know scholars and Ph.D. students in their fields in respective countries, and to seek international collaboration in the future.

Doctoral students are invited to present their research. Each presentation will be 10 minutes in English, followed by a Q&A session.
