【Lecturers Profile】
Associate Professor Mitsuyo Toyoda, CTER, Niigata University
I have been engaging in action-based research to contribute to the fostering of democratic culture, facilitating participatory processes for co-designing. My main research field is Sado Island, where the project of re-introducing the crested ibis has been taking place. I coordinate dialogical and collaborative workshops for environmental restoration and community development, and investigate how participatory environmental governance develops. Areas of interest are environmental philosophy, consensus building, and dialogue design.
