Japan 2022 - Session 3

Japanese Energy and Climate Policy

This session of the Japan 2022 briefing series features Ms. Jane Nakano, Senior Fellow in the Energy Security and Climate Change Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and Minister of Congressional Affairs Tomoaki Ishigaki from the Embassy of Japan to discuss key aspects of current Japanese energy and climate policy.


Hosted by the US-Asia Institute, the Japan 2022 Briefing Series was designed as an off-the-record, invitation-only series of roundtables for Congressional staff with emerging interest in the US-Japan relationship and related policy area. These roundtables offer unique opportunities for staff to gain knowledge of the relationship while engaging with US-Japan experts. Featuring insightful speakers from the U.S. government, business, and academic communities with special guests from the Embassy of Japan to the United States, Japan 2022 was developed for legislative aides, correspondents, and assistants. The series launched on January 27, 2022 and will continue with more conversations throughout the year. Covering all policy areas important to the US-Japan relationship--ranging from national politics, defense, trade, energy, environmental issues and more-- staffers will gain invaluable insight in an off-the-record and highly personal setting right off of Capitol Hill.


If you are an interested Congressional staffer wishing to attend, please email alec.bohlman@usasiainstitute.org to RSVP. Space is limited.
