Proportion of working age women that are employed- Japan at 64% passes the U.S. at 63% by 2015
10/16/2015
The U.S. has slipped from 7th to 20th place of 24 countries surveyed according to Jason Furman, chairman of president Obama's Council of Economic Advisors. Collins attributes this to poor child care resources available to working women and points out that this matters as it crimps family incomes. Japan is investing in pre kindergarden spaces and other ways to help women enter the work force as its population ages and it needs ways to boost the economy.

Japan and working women in business and government- Miyuki Hatoyama and Japan's "male-centred society"
12/22/2009
Miyuki Hatoyama says Japan is still a male centred society and says there is a need to change that. As old social structures break down women have less help with child care in the home, there are less child care facilities available, and women are still seen as responsible for taking care of elderly parents. Her husband was elected as DPJ party prime minister in 2010. Mr Hatoyama studied engineering for a PhD. from Stanford and met Miyuki in San Francisco. Both go together for dinner at restaurants, hold hands, and Mr Hatoyama does the dishes. Miyuki Hatoyama has written about cooking and supernatural events.

Executive Women, Finding (and Owning) Their Voice
New York Times 11/13/2014
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
