UU-GJP
“Bridging Law, Peace, and Humanity”
国際法・平和・人 道性をつなぐ研究拠点
The Utsunomiya University Global Justice & Peace Research Institute (UU-GJP) was established within the School of International Studies at Utsunomiya University to further develop the International Peace and Human Rights/Humanitarian Law Research Group, which has been actively exploring pathways to sustainable peace since 2019. The institute was launched in commemoration of the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Faculty of International Studies and the International Criminal Court (ICC) in September 2025.
UU-GJP serves as a hub for academic research, education, and social collaboration on global justice through an interdisciplinary approach that bridges international law, international politics, and area studies. Its mission is to advance interdisciplinary research on global justice, foster the next generation of scholars and practitioners, and contribute to the international community through knowledge co-creation, education, and engagement with society.
2025年9月に宇都宮大学国際学部は、国際刑事裁判所（ICC）と学術交流協定を締結しました。今後、さらなるグローバルな活動を展開するにあたって、2019年から活動を続けてきた国際学部附属多文化公共圏センター「国際平和と人権人道法研究会」は、2025年10月にUtsunomiya University Global Justice & Peace Research Institute (UU-GJP)へ名称を変更し、改組いたしました。引き続き、様々な研究領域から学際的にグローバルジャスティスを研究し、共同研究・学生の育成・教育プログラム・地域社会への貢献を通じて、知の共創と国際社会への発信を担うことを目的として活動します。
