JST and PMU-B (Thailand) jointly to fund five research projects
in the “Green Technology” field under the NEXUS program

The Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) has approved funding for five new international joint research projects under the framework of Networked Exchange, United Strength for Stronger Partnerships between Japan and ASEAN (NEXUS), “Japan-Thailand international joint research” in the field of Green Technology.

NEXUS is a flexible and multi-layered cooperative framework, leveraged by the long history of science and technology cooperation between both sides with the opportunity of the “50th anniversary of friendship and cooperation between Japan and ASEAN.” It is aimed to further strengthen the cooperative research relationship between Japan and ASEAN as partners in co-creating innovations in science and technology.

One of the initiatives, “International Joint Research,” NEXUS supports international joint research in common priority challenges between Japan and ASEAN.

In collaboration with Program Management Unit for Human Resources & Institutional Development, Research and Innovation (PMU-B), JST has conducted a call for proposals for international joint research projects.

We received seventeen applications for this call, and after evaluation by experts from both countries and consultations between JST and PMU-B, we have decided to select five projects for funding. The research period is planned for three years (36 months).
