This training program attracts international students from a wide range of academic disciplines and professional backgrounds. Given the students’ strong interest in environmental policy and waste management, we have organized a program centered on the theme of “Waste Management and Environmental Issues,” and this marks the third time the program has been held. Because these are administrative challenges that are both familiar and pressing for the participants, we consistently observe a high level of enthusiasm for learning each year.

PREX received a commission from JICA Kansai to conduct this training course for government officials working in tourism in developing countries. 12 participants from 12 countries came to Japan to participate in the course. After understanding Japan’s national and regional authorities involved in tourism and their policies, legislation as well as support systems, understanding subjects such as DMO (Destination Management/Marketing Organization), regional organizations’ roles, and after comparing them with the conditions in their own countries, the participants formulated action plans for sustainable regional tourism and for training personnel for this.
