    Abstract The vision of the Satoyama Initiative is to realise societies in harmony with nature. In achieving this am, the Initiative looks into the relationships between humans and nature in human-influenced natural environments from the social and scientific viewpoints, and collects numerous case studies applicable to various crises and socio-economic changes, in order to share them widely. As part of the effort, in 2008 and 2009, the Ministry of the Environment of Japan and United Nations University Institute of Advanced Studies (UNU-IAS) conducted case studies on the interactions between humans and nature and related activities around the world. This booklet introduces sixteen selected case studies from the ones gathered, and highlights key points from the five perspectives of the Initiative.
