Environmental Degradation And Japan's Comprehensive Security Strategy

Because of limits on Japan s use of its self defense forces in a military way, it has to engage in comprehensive security, one aspect of which is environmental degradation. Ms. Duvall will investigate the extent to which Japan has been successful in defining a security policy around environmental degradation concerns. In particular, Ms. Duvall is interested in the development of projects such as the Asia Forest Partnership and COP.
