[RSVP REQUIRED] Feminism and Intersectionatily in Okinawa, 4th edition: Same-sex partnership system in Okinawa

2024年5月30日 (木) 15:00
Center Building B503

We will discuss diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) plans for Okinawa, focusing on the partnership system that recognizes sexual minority couples as equivalent to married ones. In February 2024, Okinawa Prefecture announced that the issuance of certificates to publicly certify a couple's relationship, currently limited to residents of Naha and Urasoe cities, will soon be expanded to all areas of the prefecture. The public services provided based on the certificates will be left to the judgment of each municipality and private company. However, the details of the system, including the contact point for issuing the certificates, are still under consideration. The panelists will address the current issues being faced.
