Preface
This is my great honor to hold the workshop on trans-disciplinary research on Asia and the jointseminar of “Coastal area-capability enhancement in Southeast Asia” project with University ofPhilippines Visayas (UPV), Kasetsart University (KU), Southeast Fisheries Development Center(SEAFDEC). And on behalf of Research Institute for Humanity and Nature (RIHN), I would liketo express my grateful to participants from Eastern Marine Fisheries Research and Development
Center (EMDEC), Aklan State University (ASU) and all citizens who have much interesting on
the linkages between researches and social developments.
RIHN has been emphasized the importance of trans-disciplinary science, in other words “sciencefor society” in recent years. This movement occurred not only in RIHN but also in many academic
institutes and universities of the world, especially in environmental and food sciences. As “Areacapability project” originally targeted the harmonization between rural development andconservation ecosystems, our outcomes and experiences could be good examples for the sciencefor society. This year is the third year of the Area-Capability Project. Each project members haveto start the compilation of final outcomes of project activities. The well understanding of the senseof “science for society” will be a good help for all members of the AC project to re-examine thevalues of each scientific achievement for harmonization between rural development andecosystem conservation.
I hope this workshop and joint seminar will be good opportunities for all participants to think of“science for society” from multiple senses based on the exchange ideas and experiences eachother. And I hope this proceeding can help to facilitate the discussions and communications
among participants.
