女性の活躍を支える学びの保障政策に関する考察―地域における婦人学級創設の歴史的経緯と活動実態―

抄録

This study aims to clarify how policy that addresses active participation of women has evolved over time by examining Gifu Prefecture’s historical approaches towards the matter. In particular, the process of establishing and developing various women’s classes at the municipal level, driven by policies aimed at promoting women’s education in Japan after World War II, was examined. By keeping in mind the historical reasons for enacting policy as well as the current situation of women’s education, the characteristics and contradictions of current policy can be scrutinized in greater detail.These findings may provide insights on modern day policies in different regions and provide ideas for improving community development as it relates to women’s education.
