The same has also become an issue in Asian developing countries. Recently in Japan, peoples\u2019 organizations such as NPOs have just started alternative rural development approaches based on their wisdom and pride to \u201clive out our lives in our rural communities\u201d. This research will invite counterparts who are involved in rural development from communities in Bangladesh and Myanmar to conduct practice-oriented area studies through mutual learning in Japan so that they can exchange their experience and opinions with Japanese counterparts in order to help search for solutions to problems. Prof. Khin Oo will be invited as a visiting research fellow to CSEAS in 2011 to conduct her research on the application of alternative rural development approaches to agricultural extensions in Myanmar.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"base_h5\">Description<\/h5>\n<p>The objective of this research is to invite counterparts who are involved in rural development in communities in Bangladesh and Myanmar who will conduct practice-oriented area studies through a mutual learning workshop and PLA in rural Japan with their Japanese counterparts. Through this, they will learn an alternative rural development approach based on their wisdom and pride to \u201clive out our lives in rural communities\u201d and exchange their experience and opinions with each other.<\/p>\n<p>The significance and expected results of this research will be to develop \u201cArea Studies as Practical Learning\u201d through action research so that the scholars can lead to the creation and practice of an alternative paradigm in area studies such as \u201cCo-working Study\u201d. This research will conduct PLA and create an international grass-roots workshop in rural Japan along with counterparts from Bangladesh, Myanmar and Japan so that they can compare their experience from each country and establish a grassroots network linking people\u2019s organizations, NGOs, NPOs and researchers participating in this action research. Through the results gathered from this research, we hope to illustrate a new potential of area studies in a practical way.<\/p>\n<table class=\"table-caption\">\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/fy2010ii-1-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/fy2010ii-1-1.jpg\"\/><\/a><br \/>This photo was taken in the village of Chaw Sei Pin, Bagan, Myanmar in July 2010 during a time of severe drought in Bagan. The villagers were giving cows the leaves of tree branches as fodder. The trees are locally called Tano, one of the leguminous family trees growing in the dry and semi dry climate in Myanmar.

The red flowers are cluster-amaryllis growing on a ridge of stone and soil surrounding rice fields. The rice fields were established through an ancient land consolidation program known as Jori a thousand years ago. The bulbs of the cluster-amaryllis used to be crops that saved people from famine after being exposed to water and starch. This rural landscape is a very unique one.
