本研究では事例研究として，日本及び東南アジア諸国連合地域（以下ASEAN地域と略す）における地域社会やコミュニティレベルでSCP（持続可能な消費と生産）への転換に資する取組の現状を把握した。また，これらの取組を活性化・定着できた条件を探り，支援の方向性も検討した。 日本及びASEAN地域では多様な，SCPへの転換に資する小規模，分散的な取組が多く存在している。すべての取組は，人々の暮らしや地域の直面している課題をきっかけに始まっており，環境面の持続可能性とはマルチ・ベネフィットとして共存している。各取組はその主体と関係者との関係性から大きく次の三タイプに分けることができた；（1）ステークホルダー間の連携に基づいた協働型；（2）住民主導・主体とするニッチ型；（3）行政主導...

As part of the State of the 3Rs in Asia and the Pacific Project, we conducted a comparative study of 11 countries (Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Japan, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Viet Nam) and a sub-region (Pacific island countries) to clarify the definition, classification, amount generated, and related 3R...

To achieve regional sustainable development by decoupling waste generation from economic growth in Asian countries, this study identified (1) whether the decoupling of municipal solid waste (MSW) generation from economic growth has occurred; and (2) the relationship between MSW generation and related driving factors, by examining six representative...

This presentation was prepared for the workshop held in the UK in September 2018. This describes the overview of the current policy status on marine plastics. In the concluding part, it is also presented about the possible areas IGES can contribute to the future collaborative research project.

We have discussed International policy trends of Resource Efficiency/ Circular Economy with focus on policy development in Agri-food context as well as Japanese policies and practices in this area.

Cognisant of the disadvantages of incineration (i.e. high disposal costs, barriers to promoting the 3Rs, overuse of resources and impacts on climate change), Oki Town decided to make a radical change with the installation of a biogas plant equipped with a methane fermentation system in 2006, sparking a transition from a conventional...

This policy brief presents four directions and 12 opportunities for SCP (Sustainable Consumption and Production) policy-making in Asia and the Pacific put forward by the Asia Pacific Roundtable for Sustainable Consumption and Production (APRSCP) and PECoP-Asia (Asian academic research consortium-led project; refer to the last page). It reflects...

今のアジア地域の消費と生産は持続可能と言えるか？ 地域やコミュニティでのSCPに資する取組の現状は？ SCPへの移行実現にむけてどうすべきか？

Developed in coordination with a key expert panel of waste management specialists from across Asia, the report comprises an indicator-based assessment of 3R policies in 11 countries including Japan, China, India, Thailand as well as the Pacific Island region. By utilizing comparable measures for waste prevention, recycling, biomass utilization...
