Study tour at Fremantle City Council

Between February 26 and March 2, Nanako Shimada, one of our Assistant Directors, interned at Fremantle City Council to learn more about a variety of policies at the council.

Through her study tour in Fremantle, she got an overview of city planning including the Kings Square Redevelopment Project, and she also visited the Aboriginal Community Centre, Art Centre and library to learn more about community services. She also visited Fremantle Ports, a state government trading enterprise to learn more about the operation of container terminals and redevelopment of the Fremantle Harbour water front.

She also had the opportunity to observe a council meeting on February 28, and met Mr Josh Wilson MP, Federal Labor Member for Fremantle, who presented to her comprehensive information on Fremantle City.

CLAIR Sydney would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the Mayor of the City of Fremantle, Dr Brad Pittitt, and CEO, Mr Philip St John, Member Support Officer, Ms Rebecca Bowden, and other staff members of Fremantle City Council for accommodating Nanako’s study tour.

  • 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.
