History

Seven female faculty members organized a research form on ‘Education for Gender Sensitivity’ and began to assess the current condition of gender sensitivity on campus and related issues through student meetings and special lectures by some experts.
March 2018 ~ February 2019
Nine female and two male faculty members from various departments constituted an interdisciplinary research group and launched a joint research project on the ‘Development of Educational Programs for Cultivating Gender Sensitivity.’ They attended to issues about various minority groups and identities beyond gender, and all agreed that diversity-related sensitivity and competence is the core virtue and value for the future society. After reviewing an ample amount of domestic and international cases, they concluded that it is necessary to establish a diversity council at the university level as an organization that would protect and promote diversity.
