The purpose of this study is to propose the characteristics of environmental education in national parks in East Asia by clarifying commonalities and differences in environmental education in the national parks of Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. We compared these characteristics from the perspective of nature administration within the national parks and collaborative management with residents, which is a requirement of the parks in East Asia. First, we confirmed that national park administrations in the three countries are engaged in activities geared toward collaborative management that harmonizes environmental conservation and the local economies. Second, we examined the promotion of environmental education and confirmed that the roles of the national park administrations in the three countries differ in matters concerning environmental education. Third, we examined the structure of environmental education and confirmed that in all three countries, the residents of the national parks are essential stakeholders in the management of park areas for which environmental education had been developed. In summary, we found that although the roles of the national park administrations differ in the three countries, they share the common goal of promoting collaborative national park management and are developing a collaborative environmental education approach.

所谓外来物种,是指被人类有意无意地带到原本分布区域之外的生物种类。(村中·石滨2010)自古以来,人类为了食、药、衣、绿化、鉴赏等各种各样的用途,从地域外引进了多种多样的外来物种,并运用到自己的生活中(村中·石滨2010)。hotdon的外来物种在引进地的地区不会野化,但是一部分物种在地区内广泛定居,对地区的生态系统和农林水产业以及人类生活产生了严重的影响。2010)。像后者这样的外来物种称为侵略性外来物种(注意不同的文献定义不同;村中·石滨2010)。侵略性外来物种的问题,在现代的环境保护,特别是生态系统保护的考虑上成为不可忽视的存在(Pyšek and Richardson 2010)。世界各国都实施对侵略性外来物种的对策(Pyšek and Richardson 2010)。日本在2004年制定的《关于防止特定外来生物对生态系统等造成损害的法律(外来生物法)》(1)和2015年公布的《防止外来物种损害行动计划》(2)都属于此类。后者提出了综合、有效推进国内外来物种对策的8个基本思路,以及国家应实施的行动指针和目标等。8个思考方式的最前面是“关于外来种对策的普及启发·教育的推进和人才的培养”,记载了关于在教育机关的外来种问题及其对策的启发·教育的必要性。另外,在小学教育领域也有必要对外来物种问题进行启发(岩西·泽畠2015、加藤2016)。预计今后在学校教育场所进行关于外来物种问题及其对策的教育的机会将会增加。近年来,外来物种问题开始在学校教育中被处理(畑田平野2006,加藤2016),学生们在“综合学习时间”和课外活动中实际进行外来物种管理。实验的例子也开始被报告(平野等2008)(5)。外来种管理的参与,促进了对外来种问题和环境保护的意识的提高,和将来从事环境教育的人才的培养有可能相连(不是学校教育现场的事例,小岛2006)。另外,环境教育的目标之一“培养环境动力的实践能力”(国立教育政策研究所2014)的达成也有可能做出贡献。在验证外来物种管理的实际效果上,基于生态学方法的定量监测调查是有效的手段,当对象是植物或植物群落时,植被学的调查方法经常被使用(大洼2005)。通过监测调查的管理效果的定量化和数值化,预计会促进儿童们对管理效果的理解。而且,儿童们亲自体验监测调查,可以促进对管理效果的实际感受,对深化外来种对策的理解也有贡献。另一方面,儿童们自己定量调查外来种管理的效果的事例到现在为止几乎没有被报告(但是,平野等2008)。在新潟县十日町市内的小学,盛行着以地区的自然环境为主题的地区学习,作为其中一环,有时也会把外来物种问题作为学习课题来处理。另外,学校和市内的博物馆等的合作也很盛行,也有以自然科学为专门对地区的自然熟悉的学芸员们支援授课的事(例如,畑田·平野2006,平野等2008)。报告小学外来种的管理和监测调查-以外来植物大金桂菊为对象的案例-

I. Meaning of conducting international collaborative research The original purpose of publishing this special electronic issue “Environmental Education in Asia” of the “Japanese Journal of Environmental Education” (JJEE-EEA) was to establish a common platform for joint research on the development of environmental education (EE) in Asia and to foster international collaboration. The previous special issue of JJEE-EEA, published in 2016, included review papers in three themes: EE in Formal Education, EE in Non-formal Education, and Research Trends in EE. Researchers from Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea each provided examples from their respective countries. That special issue was composed and published, in part, due to the collaborative relations EE associations in these countries have. As such, the main goal, and the achievement, of JJEE-EEA 2016 was to share EE efforts across countries. Unlike the defined limited scope of JJEE-EEA 2016, for this consecutive issue, we encouraged researchers to propose and conduct international collaborative research under the general theme of EE in Asia, and we sought to cover diverse issues and topics of EE. The papers in this special issue detail international collaborative research including that focused on a specific species (oriental white stork), a specific area (a national park), a specific issue (nuclear energy), and a legal issue. We were pleasantly surprised to have such a variety of EE topics proposed to accept for this issue. While the previous issue (JJEE-EEA2016) succeeded in sharing general EE contexts from different Asian countries, this issue (JJEE-EEA 2019) succeeds in exploring and demonstrating issue-specific international collaborative research in the EE context in Asia. Each of the ten papers in this special issue show findings that could only have been discovered through international collaborative research, indicating the importance of adopting international perspectives instead of focusing on specific situations only in a single country or region. Collaborative research is challenging due to different cultures and languages. A researcher needs to get out of his or her comfort zone to engage in such a difficult task. While behind each paper authors faced challenges in designing and implementing international collaborative research, it is worth engaging in. As the world becomes more globalized and environmental problems become more critical in determining our continued existence on the planet Earth, initiatives such as Sustainable Development Goals become urgent. These goals cannot be solved without international collaboration, and to make collaborate efforts effective and meaningful, differences and similarities between countries should be examined. The papers in this issue are focused on this task. Uncovering these differences and similarities will ultimately inform developing solutions that cross national boundaries for issues raised in the case studies.

Developing and establishing learning among community members can be identified as PlaceBased Education (PBE), a pro-sustainable educational approach defined as the process of using the local community and environment as the pedagogy for developing commitment to local places and local stakeholders (Sobel, 2004). This study focuses on efforts by residents to promote Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) as a case study and it contributes to the discussion on the role of PBE in strengthening community resilience. The case study site, Neshinden District in Nakazuma-cho, Joso City, is a low-lying area that stretches along the left bank of the Kinugawa River that is the site of many houses flooded above floor level during a 2015 flood. In April 2018, the Neshinden neighborhood association formed a voluntary disaster-prevention organization to foster a more disaster-resilient town. Although we found a need for further activities, such as passing on the memories of disasters and making residents more aware of the vulnerability of the residential areas, this relatively new neighborhood successfully nurtured spontaneous risk communication and learning activities. The experience suggested that the role of resilience education, a type of PBE, is invigorating community resilience with intersectional and intergenerational communication by fostering residents’ interest in DRR.
