Research Abstract |
The objective of this study is to seek methods of using a Social Networking Service for developing "epistemic community" addressing consensus building on solving environmental issues among civil society members. The research focuses on the Biodiversity Cyber Dialogue Project, using Social Networking Service(SNS), conducted by RCE Chubu as a case study. The research outcome shows a positive result of using SNS for exchanging information and building a human network("Epistemic Community") among the people who shares basic ideas of discussed issues such as the importance of environmental protection. Nevertheless, a positive effect was not observed to use SNS for debates and consensus buildings so far.
