The conference encouraged open discussions where participants, both faculty members and graduate students, shared ideas and experiences and talked about the importance of collaborative work. Overall, the conference built a strong foundation for future partnerships between UTokyo and NTU and highlighted the value of sharing knowledge to support families.
