Why did you choose to come to the Centre for Gender Research?
The Center not only deals with interdisciplinary research themes, but also accepts a variety of researchers from all over world. So, I thought that researching in such an environment would definitely have good influence on me.

Shortly describe your current research project:
I have been researching collective housing for more than 10 years in Japan. Because Japanese collective housing models Swedish collective housing, I came Sweden to research its history and the development process as well as the daily life in collective housing.
