In this follow-up conference of the similar conference held last year, we discussed research agenda for investigating the state of inequality of family education and well-being among children in East Asian countries using household panel data. The conference included the invited lecture by Professor Hyunjoon Park of University of Pennsylvania about the time-use of Korean children. Six research papers using Chinese and Japanese panel data were also presented, followed by the discussions by the participants and floor.
