Research Abstract |
SATOYAMA is one of the valuable regional resources for the field of eco-tourism as well as an important ecosystem in terms of the conservation of biodiversity in rural areas of Japan. River ecosystem is suitable for studying a symbiosis between human and nature. To understand the current status of devastated environment and its causes, we developed an on-site study program that deals with river ecosystem. This study was intended to offer tourists (e.g. students from elementary or secondary education) an educational opportunity and to motivate citizens to act for the conservation of river ecosystem. Eco-tourism will play a part in the revitalization of local communities.
