Course DescriptionThe Seminar is central to activities at SFC where faculty members and students work together on a diversity of issues as a prelude to the Graduation Project. At SFC, students do not merely learn answers to given problems. Education at SFC aims to nurture and send out leaders of the future who are able to identify problems and create methods of resolving them. Through participation in such research, students work on real problems in society and gain a high level of expertise, and with this in hand, they embark on their Graduation Project that will be their "fruit of designing the future" as well as a personal proposal as they advance towards the future as individuals.

Course Summary

This seminar will focus on environment and disaster risk reduction, with specific emphasis on examples from community development and community empowerment in Asia. Asia has the highest population and density, and the region has different crucial issues of high economic development, differential poverty, and environmental issues. To address this complex issue, it needs to be linked to human security, environmental management and disaster risk reduction. Since environment and disaster issues are interlinked, to address this problem in an integrated way, it is important to understand stakeholder participation.
