Abstract

Forest management in Japan needs citizen collaboration under the current difficult circumstances. This paper analyzes the collaborative activities of six watershed forest committees in Shiga Prefecture. We conducted hearing research on the committee secretariats and a questionnaire survey among participants of the committees and found that the overall satisfaction levels were high among the participants and that the characteristics and styles of the committees influenced the evaluation levels reported by the respondents about committeeactivities. Specifically, the distinctive activities of the committee, the assignment of specific roles to members, and strong leadership most stronglyinfluenced the evaluations.
