21COE Program - Asian Development Experience and its Transferability

@

@Institute for Comparative Studies in Local Governance

Many Asian countries are now facing big challenges such as the challenge to improve the quality of administration services and to consolidate domestic governance as the economy develops. Asian countries must also promote decentralization and strengthen local governance.

The Project for Comparative Research on Local Governments aims to promote research on local governance and its management in Japan. We conduct research on the history and practice of local governance in Japan since the Meiji Period and disseminate results in Asian and other countries.

We collect documents on local governance both inside and outside Japan and conduct comparative analysis of these documents. We also promote joint research with government officials on local governance in Japan and abroad.

Our project is implemented in cooperation with the Council of Local Authorities for International Relations (CLAIR), an organization specializing in research on local governance abroad, and other organizations.
