Momoko Kagesawa completed her MA in Women’s Studies at the University of York in 2022. She majored in education for her bachelor’s degree at Tokyo Gakugei University, Japan, but she gained opportunities to witness the widespread #MeToo rallies in South Korea in 2017-18 during her first exchange study and to take a Gender Studies course at the Chinese University of Hong Kong in her second exchange study, which inspired her to explore Women’s Studies in her undergraduate dissertation and master degree. During her master’s study, she implemented research projects about how care was gendered in Japan during the covid-19 pandemic, women’s underrepresentation in politics in Japan, and the influence on women’s awareness of gender-related issues throughout the 2019 Hong Kong democracy protest, as well as the work above. She has been actively engaging in various feminist activism in Japan, and now is preparing to proceed to MPhil/PhD study in Women’s/Gender Studies.
