Smooth utilization of research outcomes into society is essential. Integration of knowledge and experiences of various research fields is needed. Holistic approach is required to tackle diverse urban issues and seek sustainable cities. Participation of various stakeholders such as researchers, government, private sectors and citizens is indispensable. Sharing experience and learning each other among cities may bring new ideas and solutions appropriate to each city. 14 Thank for your attention! 15 .

In August 2011, the Japanese Cabinet approved the Fourth Science and Technology Basic Plan, under which Japan will work to resolve global issues by actively promoting international cooperation with developing countries. Japan sees it as its own responsibility within the international community to contribute to the advancement of science and technology in developing countries and to the cultivation of human resources. In addition to the conventional approach of providing assistance by applying and transferring technology from Japan, joint research will be conducted under the SATREPS program through collaboration between universities and research institutes in Japan and in developing countries, with the objective of developing and utilizing new technologies and gaining new knowledge.

    HOW TO INTEGRATE A GLOBAL ISSUE OF FOREST CONSERVATION WITH LOCAL INTERESTS : Title INTRODUCTION TO THE SATREPS PROJECT IN SOUTHEASTERN CAMEROON Author(s) ICHIKAWA, Mitsuo African study monographs. Supplementary issue (2014), 49: 3- Citation 10 Issue Date 2014-08 URL https://doi.org/10.14989/189630 Right Type Journal Article Textversion publisher Kyoto University African Study Monographs, Suppl. 49: 3–10, August 2014 3 HOW TO INTEGRATE A GLOBAL ISSUE OF FOREST CONSERVATION WITH LOCAL INTERESTS: INTRODUCTION TO THE SATREPS PROJECT IN SOUTHEASTERN CAMEROON Mitsuo ICHIKAWA Center for African Area Studies, Kyoto University ABSTRACT Conservation of tropical rainforests, with their rich biological diversity and high potentials for carbon sequestration, has become a major global issue. While Cameroon has witnessed an increase in the number of protected areas in the southeastern part of the country during the past 15 years, this has resulted in the restriction of access of local people to the forest. Since the new forest law in 1994, most parts of the forest in Cameroon have been divided either into protected areas, or forest management units subject to current or future logging operations. There is a growing conflict between the global issue of conservation and the interest of the local people in their livelihood. The Scientific and Technological Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS), a Japanese overseas cooperation project, addresses this issue through establishing a sustainable use of Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) among the local people, which is compatible with the conservation of tropical forest. In this paper, the outline of the SATREPS project is described, and some of the interim outputs from the Projects are presented.
