Outline of the event
theme
Creating a sustainable community through a university consortium
~Aiming to create new value with an eye on the post-corona era~
Purpose of the Tournament
Today, universities and other institutions of higher education are playing a variety of roles, not only in research, educating young people, and producing human resources, but also as “bases of knowledge” that create innovation and as a leader in local culture.
On the other hand, in order to respond to the mounting issues such as the declining birthrate and aging society, global environmental problems, new coronavirus infections, and the shift to a digital society, and to create a sustainable society, it is believed that it can only be realized through exchanges involving the local community, not only with higher education institutions alone, but also with various entities such as higher education institutions, government, and industry.
Therefore, the purpose of this forum is to consider the various forms of collaboration in which the university consortium has been involved in order to create a sustainable community in the future, and to look ahead to the future of the university consortium with the aim of creating new value in the post-corona era.

The Land of Shizuoka, the Land of Japan ~Large-Scale Natural Disasters and Crisis Management of Institutions of Higher Education~
Dr. Kazuo Oike (President, University of Shizuoka, Vice President, Fujinokuni Regional and University Consortium) Overview
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Great Kanto Earthquake that occurred on September 1, 1923. In the event of large-scale natural disasters such as the Nankai Trough Earthquake, which is said to occur in the near future, crisis management and disaster prevention measures are necessary not only in Shizuoka Prefecture but also at each institution of higher education nationwide. In the lecture, we will consider the risks of natural disasters that may occur and the measures that should be taken in the future, mainly from the perspectives of earth science and seismology. In addition, I would like to think about the governance of higher education institutions for crisis management in general, including man-made disasters, together with the Mr./Ms. of all participants. |
