We have been creating intellectual values to the society in order to cope with rising issues.The 21st century, characterized as the century of transformation, is facing new challenges, which we have to identify concrete directions and tools to overcome. In the environmental management arena, the challenges include, but not limited to, actions against global warming, utilization of renewable resources, promotion of 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle) of wastes, and proper environmental and safety risk management. In the urban development arena, the challenges include restructuring regional structure for decreasing and aging populations and realizing feasible urban development in cooperation with all relevant stakeholders - i.e.: general public, authorities, and private institutions.
