Research and technology development in environmental fields play an important role in building a sustainable society and creating a virtuous cycle of environment and economics. To this end, the MOE invites project proposals for a broad range of research and technology development from the public and provides grants called the "Environmental Technology Development Fund" to those who have given a valuable proposal. From October 31 to November 30, the Ministry of Environment (MOE) will invite new project proposals for FY 2007. The MOE expects that the grants will help promote research and technology development in environmental fields, mobilizing the working knowledge of industry, academia, and governments.
