The Islamic Trust Studies Project will hold poster session in English during our International Conference 2024, held at the University of Tokyo from February 22 to 24, 2025 as an opportunity of academic exchanges through research. The application guidelines are as follows. 

Outline  

This poster session will focus on the Muslim world and phenomena related to Islam. It is primarily intended for young researchers, ranging from master’s students to postdoctoral fellows, providing them with an opportunity for academic exchange with international researchers through presentations and discussions in English. Contributions from various research areas (such as area studies, history, political science, economics, etc.) are welcome. Additionally, proposals for new methodologies and comparative studies that extend across time and space, including non-Islamic civilizations, are encouraged. Presentations that address the themes of “trust” or “connectivity (relationship building)”—the core concepts of the Islamic Trust Studies Project—are particularly welcome. For more information on the project’s key concepts, please refer to “The Scope of the Islamic Trust Studies Project” and “Considering the Keywords Used in the Trust Studies Project” as outlined below.
