Initiative overview
Purpose of establishment
In March 2021, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government formulated "Future Tokyo: Tokyo's Long - Term Strategy" to address various tasks for realising a sustainable society, including achieving a zero-emission Tokyo and preparing for the future society DX (digital transformation) would bring.
It is critical to promote policies not only via public administration, but also by making better use of academic knowledge and insights to appropriately react to these increasingly sophisticated and complicated situations.
In this context, the Tokyo Metropolitan Public University Corporation aims to strengthen the survey and research functions developed by Tokyo Metropolitan University, promote research addressing the problems of the metropolitan government from an academic standpoint under the theme of 'sustainability', provide research outcomes and make policy proposals to the metropolitan government, and disseminate research findings and information on the website and through seminars for Tokyo residents.
