D&I Consultation Desk

The D&I Consultation Desk was established as part of Ritsumeikan’s diversity and inclusion initiative. It is open to students at Ritsumeikan University and Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University (APU), as well as students of affiliated schools and every individual working at the Ritsumeikan Academy.
Any matters for consultation or comments to share regarding D&I systems and services at the academy are welcome. Much like a hotel concierge, it handles consultations from anyone learning, researching, or working at the academy who does not know who to turn to for advice about their problems.
Depending on the content of the consultation, the desk may direct individuals to other appropriate services, or work with other specialized institutions or departments to find the answer to your inquiries. Your privacy will be protected, so please feel free to contact the desk for advice or support on any matter.

Please note that it may take some time to reply, that the desk may not be able to reply depending on the content of your inquiry, and that the primary respondent may not be a specialist in the topic of your inquiry. We thank you for your understanding in this.
In principle, the desk does not reply directly to individuals regarding opinions received, though your opinions will be used as a reference to aid in operations.
