Data Visualization: Male and female research activity data at UTokyo

The University of Tokyo was selected for the Diversity Research Environment Realization Initiative (Women Leaders Development Type) in the 2022 fiscal year and launched a project titled “UTokyo Gender Equity Initiative #WeChange”. As part of this initiative, the Office for Gender Equity of the University of Tokyo’s Center for the Co-production of Inclusion, Diversity and Equity (IncluDE) developed a data visualization project showing the male and female research activity at UTokyo. This project forms part of the initiative’s broader foundation-building efforts, aimed at raising awareness about gender equity among the wider UTokyo community.

This visualization of gender-specific researcher activity data was developed in collaboration with the Institutional Research of the Management Planning Department to promote diversity in the research environment at the University of Tokyo. As a result, gender-disaggregated data on faculty numbers and KAKENHI grants have been publicly released.

We are pleased to announce that the detailed data are now available on the UTokyo Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) webpage.
