The HAPPY WOMAN Executive Committee will hold "HAPPY WOMAN FESTA 2026 HOKKAIDO" in Sapporo on March 20th. Students from our university are scheduled to give presentations at the "HAPPY WOMAN University Student Summit" held as part of this event.

March 8th is International Women's Day. This year, "HAPPY WOMAN FESTA 2026" is being held all over Japan. At the Chikaho venue, two teams composed of students from our university will be participating in the "HAPPY WOMAN University Student Summit," just like last year. The theme is "Period to Future ~Thinking about our future from the perspective of menstruation~". Menstruation is still a difficult topic to talk about. University students who will shape the future will confront the real challenges of menstruation and present solutions that they hope will be possible. Taking a step beyond the difficulty of talking about it—this is an event where we can think together about what will be the "norm" of the future. Please come to the venue and support our university teams' presentations!
