KT ISSUE 13: BELONGING - Editors' Note
Written by & | Cover Design by
"We all find our own ways to belong. Komaba Times welcomes the spring of 2024 with the most multilingual and multimedia edition of our magazine yet. “Issue 13: Belonging” showcases writers, artists, and academics across the University of Tokyo’s campuses covering the gamut of what it means to belong. No two contributors to this issue agree on the concept of belonging.
