CLAIR Forum 2024(11 Mar)

Posted on by Mariko
On 11 March, CLAIR Sydney held the CLAIR Forum 2024 in collaboration with the University of Technology Sydney’s Institute for Public Policy and Governance (UTS Institute for Public Policy and Governance).
 
The CLAIR Forum is an event where CLAIR Sydney, UTS IPPG, and other local government representatives present and discuss their organisations’ strategies as well as their research findings on common challenges faced by local governments in Japan, Australia, and New Zealand.
 
This year’s theme was “Disaster Management and Resilience,” with five CLAIR Sydney members and Vanessa Chan from UTS, representing Nicole Parsons from Illawarra Shoalhaven Joint Organisation, Tommaso Briscese and Miriam Wassef from Burwood Council, discussing a wide range of disaster/disease preparedness topics.
 
Participants were able to receive useful insights into local government efforts in Japan and Australia and exchange perspectives as a reference for policy-making.

  • To investigate environmental countermeasures, a student and her chaperone from Hikone Technological High School of Shiga Prefecture visited Australia from late July to early August. CLAIR Sydney conducted a briefing on 29 July about Australia’s culture and customs, and accompanied the group to a company visit in Brisbane on 31 July, where the company, known for producing products using a type of seaweed called Asparagopsis, shared insights into their research and production processes.

    During the visit, they received information on efforts to reduce methane emissions from livestock using Asparagopsis, viewed from a carbon-neutral perspective. The student’s proactive participation in the meetings, driven by a desire to engage in environmental initiatives in the future, was impressive.

    In addition to the briefing and accompaniment, we also reached out to the company to request a representative to discuss their Asparagopsis research. CLAIR Sydney will continue to support the activities of Japanese local governments conducting research on topics related to Australia.
