Report on the Lecture by Mr. Ken Sakuma, "Learning about and Communicating Issues related to leprosy: From the School Perspective"

On August 25th, a lecture by Mr. Ken Sakuma entitled "Learning about and communicating about Issues related to leprosy- from the school setting" was held.
Since last The National Hansen's Disease Museum, we have been holding a series of lectures on occupations in which we invite people from various professions who have been working on Issues related to leprosy to talk about their experiences. The first lecture was held in December 2018, titled "Lecture: What I want to tell those who want to become social workers / Lecturer: Etsuko Sakate (Social Worker, Welfare Division National Sanatorium Oku-Komyoen Komyoen)". The second lecture was held in June 2019, titled "Lecture: 'Human recovery' for a newsman ~From an encounter with Leprosy recovered persons ~ / Lecturer: Hideyuki Ogawa (Director of News Production, Mie Television Broadcasting)". For the third lecture today, we invited Mr. Ken Sakuma (Head teacher, Tokyo Metropolitan Musashidai Gakuen Fuchu Branch), who is currently working as a school teacher, to talk about the theme of "Learning about and communicating about Issues related to leprosy ~From the school setting~".
We had a lot of customers come and the event was sold out. Thank you very much. We would like to introduce some of the opinions and comments we received from our customers.

• We would like to express our sincere gratitude for creating an irreplaceable and important learning opportunity. Thank you very much.
• I learned a lot. I would like to make use of it in educational settings.
• Thank you for creating a wonderful lecture opportunity. Professor Sakuma's story made me think about what is important as an educator and as a human being, beyond the perspective of creating lessons for Hansen's Disease I would be happy if you could create such an opportunity again.
• Thank you for your very moving talk today. I would like to ask Professor Sakuma a lot of questions and talks. Thank you for meeting Dr. Sakuma. Thank you for your lecture. I think YouTube's consideration is wonderful.
• Hansen's Disease was treated from the Edo period to the present day by looking at many materials. I wanted to learn more about discrimination due to illness.
• How can I tell people who aren't interested or don't want to understand? I thought. I thought that I had to spread the word to indifferent people such as politics, Okinawa, and Fukushima. I think education is important.
• The content of the lecture was easy to understand and it was a good facility.
• I am impressed with the enhancement of the homepage in recent years.
• When I checked this lecture on HP, I knew it was the third one. I definitely wanted to know the contents of the first and second bullets.

We would like to continue to consider plans that many people can participate in, so we look forward to working with you. We look forward to your participation.
