Academic Research Meeting

Waseda University Sustainability Academic Research Meeting

This study group was established in July 2007, primarily consisting of researchers of environmental issues from social science perspective. This group is open not only to social scientists, but also to anybody (including non-Waseda people) interested in social perspective of environmental problems.
The group will hold a study session every two months, and share cutting-edge knowledge and the members’ own researches. If the group becomes sufficiently active, the group may form a official study project group, such as Global COE. To read the group’s objective statement, click here. (PDF：100KB)
