CGS co-hosted its third international workshop with COE, "Body Knowledge and Gender in Asia," at ICU from October 6 to 8, 2006. This year, our aim was to explore the possibility of a gender perspective from the viewpoint of "natural science," following the previous two workshop series on social science (2004) and humanities (2005) perspectives. The workshop brought together a broad range of practical and theoretical "body knowledge" professionals, including sex-education advisors, midwives, researchers of midwifery, medical anthropologists, medical sociologists, scientific historians, and scientific philosophers from Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, India, and Japan.

【This piece of writing, which is available only online, has been written in relation to the article entitled "Constitutional Amendment and Gender" contributed by Ms. Noriko Ishida to the seventh issues of our newsletter.】

“Gender Perspectives on Constitutional Amendment,” a lecture by Ms. Noriko Ishida, was held at International Christian University (ICU), on 23rd September, 2006. Since ICU does not have a Law Faculty, this was a rare opportunity for its students to not only consider Constitutional amendment from a gender perspective, but also to learn about the issue from a specialist in Law. The supplementary handouts and detailed explanations made the lecture accessible to those who are not familiar with Law.
