Why does Japan, one of the leading nations in the world, lag behind when it comes gender equality? What should change in society for gender equality to be achieved?
In this first episode of The East Angle, hosts Ra Mason and Sherzod Muminov discuss gender issues in Japan with Mami Mizutori, a top Japanese diplomat who until recently served as Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations, and Hannah Osborne, a scholar of Japanese literature at the University of East Anglia.
