Owada Chair
The Universities of Leiden and Tokyo jointly established a chair named after Professor Hisashi Owada in 2021.
The chair focuses on the interaction between international law and international relations from an interdisciplinary perspective.
The main Owada Chair activity is an annual symposium held alternately at Leiden University and the University of Tokyo. This website offers details about the symposia in Leiden. See the University of Tokyo's Owada Chair website for details about the symposia in Japan.
