La population de Fukushima ne peut pas se jouir avec la tenue des JO de Tokyo, ,Ruiko Mutô s'explique :
Consequence of Rio's pre-Olympics eviction policy: women made more vulnerable in numerous ways, including personal safety and threats of domestic violence.
"Of the instances of rape that took place in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro's West Zone (where a woman was raped every 13 hours), 48% took place in the areas where the most new public housing complexes had been built.
The process of urban segregation and the peripheralization of housing affects women more acutely—not only because ...of the lack of basic urban infrastructure and essential services, like daycare centers, schools, hospitals, and transportation, but also because of domestic and urban violence. Distance relative to former place of residence is another important factor because displacement to excessively distant locations can break ties of solidarity and mutual support, which, for women—who are responsible for reproductive labor and caring for dependents—are essential in order to maintain work relations and individual autonomy."
