| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
At the begging of this research, we looked at Australian tourists and migrants, and their community. However, once we started our investigation, we found out that many foreigners come to Niseko as tourists, interns, and working holiday makers, and some even live in Niseko permanently as a business owner or investor. Such increase of foreign population in Niseko has influenced the local economy, education and even its linguistic landscape.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
観光によって促されたグローバルモビリティによってニセコは他の外国人が多い地域とは異なる変容をし、旅行者、季節労働者、インターン、トランス移民によって頻繁に人が行き来する既存のコミュニティの概念では捉えられない国際的でかつ流動的な空間になりつつあり、今後の観光を通して発展していく多文化コミュニティの新たな形を提案するものとなっている。
