◆ Regarding Registration as a "Kochi Company Promoting Paternity Leave"
Release Date:
Our university has recently been registered as a "Kochi Male Parental Leave Promotion Company" under an initiative by Kochi Prefecture.
This initiative aims to address the issue of population decline—a top priority for Kochi Prefecture—by promoting "dual-income, shared parenting" and increasing the rate at which men take paternity leave at companies within the prefecture.

■Message from President Uchida
"Kochi University says 'Yes' to paternity leave."
Paternity leave is no longer considered “special.”
As a leader, I will clearly demonstrate its importance and
and will work to create a workplace where staff can naturally balance childcare and work.
Kochi University is committed to creating a workplace environment where all faculty and staff, regardless of gender, can better balance child-rearing and work.
