As part of its DE&I promotion, Science Tokyo provides sanitary pads in some of the campus toilets for those who need them.

Locations

Sanitary pads are available in the following toilets on the Ookayama and Suzukakedai campuses. The information is also available via the “Institute of Science Tokyo Accessibility Information” website.

First, we are deploying them mainly in facilities used by bachelor course students who are not affiliated with laboratories and in toilets near lecture rooms. The following list also includes locations that have already been previously implemented by departments and other organizations.
