Thanks all for the entries and welcome new students!

Takuya and Kyohei

Thanks for sharing the stories of your life here in GSID.
I have been always thinking to write some messages to update, but I am too lazy about it...

Yes, we had hosted Africa Education Research Forum last weekend, which was participated by nearly 50 people and had active discussion. After the Forum, we received many messages from the participants to appreciate the efficient organization of the Forum, which I would like to thank the GSID secretariat, Yuki, Ayaka, Kyohei, Mariko, Takuya, and Yoko.

In the M1 seminar, I am planning to do the similar research project as the last year's group. Last year, we focused on USAID, but this time, the focus will be on JICA.

Dr. James Williams has left GSID, after spending half a year as visiting professor. But he returned here last week and will come back again to join our seminar on May 13. Let's welcome him with warm hospitality again.

Will write again... soon... hopefully... Entries from students and alumni are always welcome!!
