Central to this transition is the &#8220;oil for technology&#8221; framework, where Saudi energy resources have been exchanged for Japanese technological expertise. A focal point is the Saudi\u2013Japan Vision 2030, launched in 2016, which redefines the relationship by promoting mutual economic revitalization through investment, innovation, and human capital development. This majlis will explore historical shifts, current achievements, and future challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To register: https:\/\/forms.gle\/NHwJJZMmwjNemrTX7<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-552\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/05\/4fdf61e07592597dcd3831b29f76adac-610x863.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"610\" height=\"863\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/05\/4fdf61e07592597dcd3831b29f76adac-610x863.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/05\/4fdf61e07592597dcd3831b29f76adac-940x1330.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/05\/4fdf61e07592597dcd3831b29f76adac-768x1086.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/05\/4fdf61e07592597dcd3831b29f76adac-1086x1536.jpg 1086w, https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/assets\/uploads\/2025\/05\/4fdf61e07592597dcd3831b29f76adac.jpg 1414w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are excited to announce that the Chair of the State of Qatar in Islamic Area Studies at Waseda University w [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-542","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news-en","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/542","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=542"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/542\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":554,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/542\/revisions\/554"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=542"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=542"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/qatarchair\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=542"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
