Organized by UNEP-IETC, IGES-CCET, UNDP, the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, and the National University of Lesotho...

地域GXを地域の持続的な発展につなげるためには、地域資源をどう価値に変え、事業を生み出していくのかという地域経営の視点が不可欠です。一方で、人口減少や財源の制約など、地域を取り巻く環境が変化し続けるなか、最初から完璧なマスタープランを描くことは容易ではありません。こうした地域の抱えるGXの難しさを踏まえ、岡山県西粟倉村の上山隆浩副村長・CGOを迎え、「行き当たりばっちり」の地域GXをテーマに「西粟倉村では、なぜ20年間事業を生み出し続けられるのか」を考えるウェビナーを開催しました。 同村は2004年の平成の大合併で自立の道を選んだものの、当初は岡山県下で最も財政力が低く、観光施設の赤字と「村には何もない」というネガティブな認識からの出発でした。しかし...

Urban heat in rapidly growing megacities is spatially uneven, yet the relative influence of built form, socioeconomic activity and blue-green spatial configuration remains insufficiently resolved in cities of the Global South. This study examines neighbourhood-scale controls on land surface temperature (LST) in Delhi, India, using a single clear...

Increasing plastic pollution, resource stress, and socio-economic inequalities highlight the limitations of conventional tourism models and the need for more...

Typhoon impacts in the Philippines exhibit strong neighbour hood-scale heterogeneity driven by interactions among haz ard intensity, exposure, and vulnerability, yet most opera tional assessments remain hazard-centric. This study presents a grid-based machine-learning framework for neighbour hood-scale typhoon risk mapping integrating geophysical...
