Research on vegetation and soil in forests, research into museum education

Institute for Nature and Environment

Lecturer Seiji Kodate

Based on the results of surveys and research into the vegetation and soil in forests, I conduct seminars and other activities on biodiversity for various groups of people at the Museum of Nature and Human Activities, where I am also employed.

I am also advancing efforts in the “Hometown Hyogo Children’s Environment Experience Promotion Project” (common name: Eco-loco Project) in cooperation with the Environmental Policy Design of Hyogo Prefecture.

The project provides a program on nature and living things for kindergarten children. Members of the project visit schools like kindergartens and nursery schools to provide teachers with recurrent education.
