Our quarterly newsletter, CLAIR Correspondence,
features the latest from Japanese local authorities
on topics of mutual interest to Australian and New
Zealand local communities, such as environmental
management, regional development and grassroots
exchanges.
CLAIR Tokyo has been collaborating with the
Institute for Comparative Studies in Local Governance (COSLOG)
at the National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies (GRIPS)
to conduct research on Japanese local governance systems and
their operation. As part of this activity, CLAIR Tokyo and COSLOG
have been compiling research reports on Japanese local governance
which are written in English, and have been collecting documents
and reference materials on local governance both inside and
outside Japan.
