The year 2024 was a busy year for us.
In the first half of the year, we held symposia at University of Bordeaux and University of Vienna in March and June. Hosting our Kyoto University European Center’s 10th Anniversary event in September, in the second half of the year, we held a trilateral international symposium with the Universität Hamburg at the National Taiwan University in November. Furthermore, we held a seminar with the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) and the University of Heidelberg in Paris in March, and we decided to develop this as an ‘Aging’ project, and held a kick-off seminar in Kyoto in October.
This year we were also blessed with the opportunity to welcome many people to our office in Heidelberg. As well as welcoming many guests to our 10th anniversary event in September, researchers and students spontaneously visited us. Through casual exchanges, we were also able to reaffirm what kind of support is needed by our office.
We feel that what the European Center has nurtured have come to fruition, and that new seeds have also been sown.
You can have an overview of these activities in Season’s Greetings 2024.
We look forward to working with you in the coming year!
