What's Core-to-Core?
Outline
The purpose of research exchanges
The present study, the waters three Southeast Asian countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines) to organize the information on disaster prevention and mitigation of, further, between the five countries, which joined Australia and and Japan have extensive experience in the Asian region research, disaster prevention and by building an international network on disaster mitigation practices, and is intended to form the education and research foundation for the formation of disaster prevention community in the Asia scale.
Challenges in Asian countries
Asian countries, including Japan, the earthquake and tsunami, typhoons and cyclones, such as floods and land collapse, is prone areas of natural disasters. In recent years, Asian countries are remarkable economic growth, the scale of the risk of domestic economic losses due to disaster is growing. When the industrial base is affected, not only the country, will increase its influence abroad. In addition, in the Asian region, it is progressing international movement for labor and education. As in the prior art, only disaster prevention education to target the people in each country, it fully can no longer corresponds to the disaster.
Challenges in Japan
Japan is, in the practice of disaster prevention and mitigation field, also in the technical aspects, but also in terms of self-help, mutual assistance, public aid by the government and residents, is a disaster prevention developed countries with an excellent track record. However, disaster prevention practice in developed countries which has achieved economic growth, and high social mobility, such as population movement developing countries, in the disaster response of society has advanced aging, no longer by-class enough.
Towards the formation of disaster prevention community beyond the border
In order to solve the disaster prevention of challenges to society of these two types at the same time, it assumes the height of the social mobility, across the border, to enable the efforts of the entire Asian region "in the Asia scale There is a need to create a disaster management community. "
This study, at the same time the waters of Southeast Asia three countries, known for social mobility of height (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines) to target, and to organize the information on disaster prevention and mitigation practices of each country, to this, Japan and Australia between the five countries, including, it is intended to build an international human network to share information on disaster prevention and mitigation practices.
By Australian and Japanese researchers has extensive experience in regional research field through the culture, history and society of waters Southeast Asia is applied, the education and research foundation for the formation of disaster prevention community in the Asia scale is formed Rukoto is expected.
Outline
In this project, a combination of the two joint field work and international seminars, to proceed with the research exchange.
① The joint fieldwork in the multinational framework and collaborative enforcement
② Enforcement of the international symposium seminar to share collaborative result
Through joint field work and international seminars, and at the same time to share the information of the entire research exchanges, for both research community and the general public, to proceed with the dissemination of research results. In addition, in these two to incorporate in going form, to proceed with the development of young researchers. In addition, the results of the international joint research, we aim to publish as English academic book.
Joint Field Work
Joint field work and joint studies, every year, Southeast Asia of three countries (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines) out of the two carried out the region and in Japan, to proceed with the research exchange in the framework of the multilateral.
International Seminar
Together with the joint research, in addition to seminars in the field of the three Asian countries, Japan and Australia once every year, and an international seminar in conjunction with the Society.
Implementation System
Core Institution of the Japanese side, in the center of the Center for Integrated Area Studies, also Asia three countries bases institutions, Syiah Kuala University (Indonesia), Ateneo de Manila University (Philippines), at the center of the University of Malaya (Malaysia), to proceed with the research exchange.
Business Objectives
Construction of research cooperation
Southeast Asia society in which this research project is the main target, the height of the social mobility is remarkable. In addition, not uncommon to change the occupation and belongs in a short period of time. For this reason, it has become often proceed by connecting a personal relationship in cooperation cooperation with local counterparts.
In this research project, which on the basis of the individual relationship that has been cultivated by the joint research that been done before, we will encourage to be positioned as an organization activities in each partner country. In addition, since the different major disaster depending on the country or region, from the fact that the field and approach that is central to every country is different in disaster response study, including the communication to smoothly promote joint research, including a variety of disciplines and approaches we aim to build a cooperative structure.
Disaster Response Research
In disaster response, (1) of the wide area that can affect across the border disaster, (2) large repeatedly occurred damage in the countries and regions, national disaster management efforts are underway disaster, (3 ) frequency of occurrence is high, but can be a matter of life and death for the local communities, to capture little to be seen as a disaster for the entire nation because of the human and economic damage relatively small "small disaster", respectively It is important.
In a conventional disaster research, but have been addressed, including (1) to the center (2) In this research project, which is based on the regional study, all becomes subject to (1) to (3) . First of all, the disaster is each of the countries and regions should be addressed, (1) to make clear in line with the distinction of (3), after you organize as a reference of narrowing of the study, we will promote the research.
The development of young researchers
Disaster Response study, complex approach, according to various industry and professional is needed, also, because the practice and study in many cases lead, for the young researchers of training, it says a very useful research.
With to expand the opportunities for joint research and its results outgoing to the specific challenge of disaster response, in order to contribute to the training of young researchers familiar but also to the organization and operation of joint research beyond the industries and sectors, joint research and research who exchange and young researchers in the management of the holding of scientific meetings such as the seminar is to be able to participate actively, we established a system.
Contribute to the local
日Japan Core Institution "disaster of regional research" by the project (link), as in the case which has been working in Indonesia, held a workshop with the participation of local of local government and media reports, medical care, education officials , by carrying out the discussion in the local language community researchers and mediation, it will be able to convey the information and knowledge in the respective layers of the local society.
Effective or even at the local contribution of techniques other partner countries in Indonesia, or whether to take a different approach, based on the nature of language status and information communication and mutual understanding in the target countries each of the society of this project, consider we will.
