Abstract

The following accounts are from teaching staff at universities that have collaborated with The University of Tokyo in the APIEL's field exercises, as well as three alumni. The purpose of this chapter is to reflect the mutual influences of resonances created by Asian Program for Incubation of Environmental Leaders (APIEL) and collaborators across region, stakeholders and disciplines in Asia. The teaching staffs from Asian Institute of Technology, Cold and Arid Regions Environment and Engineering Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Royal University of Phnom Penh and Seoul National University have shared their experiences with APIEL to foster future environmental leaders. Three APIEL alumni comments impact of APIEL on academic and professional development, its relevance to subsequent activities, and their own development.
