Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study identified the challenges related to the science-policy interface (SPI) for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on climate change action, biodiversity conservation, and forest conservation. We analyzed the evolution of policy and scientific processes related to climate change and biodiversity, focusing on "nature-based solutions," which refer to a wide range of measures that benefit human well-being and biodiversity while addressing various societal challenges. This study indicated the need to consider the relationship between science and policy that addresses not only climate change and biodiversity loss but also broader governance challenges, including societal system transformation to achieve sustainable development, after 2015.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
学術的な意義は、SDGsの達成に向けたSPIを考える上で重要だが、まだ研究が乏しい複合的なSDGsの目標達成の視点から、森林を含む自然を基盤とした解決策を事例にSPIについて研究をした点である。SDGs達成に求められる目標横断的な科学と政策間の関係について、自然を基盤とした解決策を事例に、国際・国内(先進国・途上国両方)の制度や行為主体の関係性を分析し、SPIの分析に分野横断、国際・国内、先進国・途上国のリンクという新たな視点を提供し、環境分野のSPI研究発展に貢献した。社会的意義は、環境分野のSPI構築や国際的な科学的アセスメント(IPCC他)のあり方の議論にも示唆を与えた点である。
