[Profile]
ANKEI Yuji
I have been interested in the relationship between human life and the environment. Starting from 1974, I studied anthropology under the supervision of the late Professor ITANI Junichiro of Kyoto University. together with my wife Takako, who specializes in botany and ecology, I have been engaged in field surveys in Iriomote and other islands in southern Japan (2 years), in the Democratic Republic of Congo and other countries of tropical Africa (3 years). We also stayed in Paris, France (2 years) and in Pamplona, Spain (5 months). Recently, we have occasionally visited Taiwan. I began my career teaching cultural anthropology and Japanese folklore in Okinawa University, cultural anthropology in Yamaguchi University, and area studies in Yamaguchi Prefectural University. After retirement in 2017, I created a private association named "Institute for Biocultural Diversity" for which my wife and I are the only members as of now.
