JASTIP Mini Symposium “STI for Sustainable Development Goals: How can we transfer the ASEAN-Japan collaboration research outcomes in Bioenergy field?”
Content
It is strongly required Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) and its application to the society to make our society sustainable. In particular, the sustainable energy system is one of the core STI, as referred to in SDG Goal7 “Sustainable Energy”.
It is however we face difficulty to have a clear roadmap on how we can transfer fruits of energy science to “solutions” on the ground. Scientific collaboration programme between ASEAN and Japan, such as SATREPS and e-ASIA, receive high expectations as a vehicle to carry out “from theory into practice”, and to that end, we certainly need to share one vision by interlinking among each activity, project and programme to generate a synergetic effect. In this regard, JASTIP, as a STI platform for partnership between ASEAN and Japan, will organize a 1-day symposium with a special focus on technology transfer and knowledge sharing on scientific outputs in the bioenergy field into the ASEAN society.
This is also part of the 7th Sustainable Energy and Environment Conference (SEE2018, 28-30 November) under the theme of “Technology & Innovation for Global Energy Revolution” led by Joint Graduate School of Energy and Environment (JGSEE). In the end of the symposium, we expect to network closely each other and to share a deeper and common understanding on a way forward for implementation of scientific results for social changes through dialogues and discussions among invited SATREPS and e-ASIA research groups.
