【趣 旨】
Since the foundation of the RIHN, it has been our basic understanding that the root of the so-called global environmental issues lies with human culture in the broadest sense of the word, that is, the way of living in which humans wish to control nature. To reach solutions to global environmental issues, it is essential for us to draw up a plan for building a sustainable society. In this seminar, we would like to seek how we reach better solutions for the future through keynote speeches by Kazakhstan and Japanese scholars, and a dialogue with young university students.
