UK x JP 2018

The UK x JP conference 2018 is going to be held between 8th-16th September.

UK x JP 2018 – ‘Migration and Labour Rights in the UK and Japan’

The UK, although is now leaving, has long been a part of the EU and has been a pursuer of cosmopolitanism, while Japan continues to treat ‘immigration’ and ‘nationality’ with caution.

Analysing historical and cultural backgrounds, domestic issues and circumstances, a discussion will be held on how these two nations would address the future of human migration.
