1) Field of Cooperation - "Marine Science"
On the basis of "the 13th Japan-Australia joint commission on science and technology cooperation" held in October 2008, MEXT set "Marine Science" as the area to cooperate with Australia. In response, JST and DIICCSRTE agreed to implement the Strategic International Research Cooperative Program in the area of Marine Science.
2) Funding Agency on Australia Side
Established in 2007, the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research strives as a key priority to encourage the sustainable growth of Australian industries by developing a national innovation system that drives knowledge creation, cutting edge science and research, international competitiveness and greater productivity. The Department is committed to developing policies and delivering programs, in partnership with stakeholders, to provide lasting economic benefits ensuring Australia's competitive future.
