The role of natural history museum as a local coordinator to overcome "the loss of interest in nature"

记者从自然博物馆的角度支持了“国土交通部近畿地区发展局”每年5、6月开展的“大阪湾沿岸生物市民调查”。截止到2007年，参与调查的人数逐年增加。2012. 自然博物馆作为地方协调者的作用通过支持调查得到了证明。记者与有关大阪湾复原的行政人员、研究人员、市民团体负责人一起，提出了“大阪湾年2012-2113”的口号。此外，大阪湾周围的7个博物馆和水族馆机构相互连接。他们将在2013年内举办有关大阪湾性质的特别展览。这些博物馆和水族馆的合作得到了有关人士的高度评价。

The reporter has supported, from a standpoint of natural history museum, “the citizens’ investigation of littoral organisms in Osaka Bay” which has been carried out in May or June annually by the promotion of “Kinki Regional Development Bureau, Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport”. Participants of the investigation have been increasing year by year through 2007 ? 2012. The role of natural history museum as a local coordinator has been proved by supporting the investigation. The reporter joined with administrators, researchers and leaders of citizens’ group concerned with restoration of Osaka Bay, and proposed with them “Osaka Bay Years 2012-2113” as a catchword. In addition, seven institutions of museums and aquariums surrounding Osaka Bay have joined to each other. They are to hold special exhibitions concerned with the nature of Osaka bay within the year of 2013. Cooperation of these museums and aquariums is highly estimated by those who concerned.
