  • 全国小地域別将来人口推計システムの開発と社会的利活用が「2024年度シンフォニカ統計GIS活動奨励賞」を受賞
  • Professor Takashi Inoue
  • 従来、信頼度の高い人口推計は市区町村単位でしか行われてきませんでしたが、井上教授はある地域に対して働く周辺地域の影響力の総和を定義した「人口ポテンシャル」の考え方を採りいれながら、より小さな地域に対する将来人口推計の手法を確立。「全国小地域別将来人口推計システム」を開発し、社会的活用につながる応用手法の実現が高く評価されています。

  • Economic and quantitative analysis of the effects of carbon pricing
    - Proposing a balance between reducing carbon dioxide emissions and economic growth -
  • Professor Shigeru Matsumoto
  • Professor Shigeru Matsumoto and his research group, who conducted a detailed analysis of the impact of carbon pricing policies on household finances using microdata on consumption, were awarded the Achievement Award at the Ichimura Prize for Global Environmental Studies. The group was highly praised for their economic and quantitative analysis of the effectiveness and effects of carbon pricing policies, which have been noted as having been slower to take hold in Japanese society than in Western countries, and for proposing a method to achieve emissions reductions without significantly slowing down economic activity.
