Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Initiatives

In the R2030 Academy Vision, Ritsumeikan defined the ideal Academy as one “dedicated to realizing diversity, Equity and inclusion,” and is promoting diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) through various actions in order to create an organization where each and every member can learn, pursue research, and work with peace of mind.
Please refer to the website of the Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for more information about the Academy’s approach to DE&I promotion and its actions.

On the site, you can find on-campus consultation services and a "DE&I Consultation Service" that you can use when you don't know where to go for consultation.

With regard to sexual diversity, we have formulated the "Basic Approach to Sexual Diversity" and the "Guidelines on Support for Students regarding Sexual Diversity at Ritsumeikan University”.
