JSPS Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, Grant-in-Aid for Challenging Research (Pioneering)

PLASTIC PROJECT: We start a new project, accepted by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) as a Grant-in-Aid for Challenging Research (Pioneering) (KAKENHI). The title of the research project is ” Regulation of plastic use and waste-material business model in African nations ” (a.k.a. PLA Research). Africa, along with Europe, is actively working toward a plastic-free society. We would like to consider the path to a plastic-free society based on the policies, the current situation, and the lives of its people.
