About this event
Join us for a conversation focused on how sport and education reveal a society's structures and values. In particular, the presentation will focus on Japan’s history of school sports post-1945, how changes in disability rights in Japan have impacted access to sports for youth with disabilities, and views on the future from recent changes.
Professor Atsushi Nakazawa (Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan) will present his recent research focused on school athletics for students with disabilities and the disability rights movements in Japan post-1945.
Professor Karen Nakamura (UC Berkeley) will be in conversation with Professor Nakazawa following his presentation.
The conversation and Q&A will be moderated by Dr. Fred Ariel Hernandez (UCLA/UCI).
A reception with light refreshments will immediately follow the lecture and Q&A.
This event launches the Sports and Society Lab, the newest addition to the UCLA Disability Studies Inclusion Labs. The Sports and Society Lab explores the barriers and progress that impact athletes with disabilities across recreational and competitive levels.
