The activities of the Research Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere are expanding internationally. In addition to promoting a wide range of international collaborative research, the institute is opening up nationwide shared-use facilities, equipment, databases, and research projects to researchers from universities and research institutions abroad as part of its new role as a shared-use and collaborative research hub. Furthermore, it is making significant contributions to the advancement of science and technology in the international community, particularly in the Asian region.
