I. Main activities:

1. During the war, the militaristic women's group represented by the National Defense Women's Federation directly acted as a loyal executor of the government's wartime policy. When the war brought a large number of social problems to Japan, such as a sharp drop in population and the difficulty of getting married for disabled soldiers, the scope of rear support work also expanded rapidly. The government hopes to rely on women's organizations to implement the rear support policy to every woman, and militaristic women's groups also actively cooperate.

2. When the national mobilization movement needs women to support the war of aggression; When a large number of soldiers went to the front, the labor resources in the economic construction in the rear were insufficient, and the government issued a series of decrees requiring women to make labor contributions; When the war consumes a lot of human resources and the population drops sharply, women's groups organize ordinary women all over the country to leave their families and serve soldiers in the streets, ports and stations.

They organize fund-raising activities, collect waste products and carry out environmental protection campaigns. They encourage women to get married early, marry disabled soldiers, and have more children for the country ... These groups just make up for the lack of state support in the rear and replace and supplement the administrative functions of the country to some extent.

Second, the organization introduction:

The National Defense Women's Association is the largest women's organization in Japanese history. The National Defense Women's Association was established in Osaka on March 1932, and was officially renamed as Japan National Defense Women's Association on October 24th of the same year. As one of the tools of aggression, the organization brought Japanese women into the wartime system.

Extended data

During the Japanese invasion of China, although most Japanese women did not go to the front to serve as soldiers, they actively participated in Japan's "rear" service and supported the war.

Thousands of Japanese women, known as "Flowers of the Empire", "Mothers of the Army", "Wives of the Army", "Wives of the State of Jing" and "Daughters of the Army", proved the close relationship between Japanese women and the war of aggression and Japanese fascist militarism in the process of Japan's foreign aggression.

Japan Defense Women's Association has developed rapidly with the expansion of Japanese aggression. The number of members expanded rapidly, reaching 654.38+million one year later and 600,000 two years later. 1937 the Japanese war of aggression against China broke out in an all-round way. Women's group activities in Japan became active, and many Japanese young women bewitched by militarism responded to the call of the country and came to the northeast of China to marry the "Manchu-Mongolian Pioneering Group" youth.

Therefore, the activities of Japanese women's groups have become more active and developed rapidly. The number of national defense women's associations has grown from 4.58 million before the Lugouqiao Incident to nearly/kloc-0.00 million at last, becoming an extremely large-scale women's organization.
