Embassy of Sweden Tokyo, Japan
Welcome to the Embassy of Sweden in Tokyo, Japan.
Prof. Malin Falkenmark (93), Senior Researcher at Stockholm Resilience Center, has been awarded the Blue Planet Prize sponsored by the Asahi Glass Foundation and the Awards ceremony was held on the 10th of October.
The ceremony was attended by notable guests including Their Imperial Highnesses Prince and Princess Akishino. Ms Victoria Forslund Bellas, Deputy Head of Mission, made a congratulatory remarks representing Embassy of Sweden.
Prof. Falkenmark has been the most renowned global hydrologist, and the Falkenmark index for quantifying the degree of water scarcity is an essential indicator for comparative water analyses. Her green/blue water concept is currently a standard for analysis of agricultural production, which comprises a significant portion of the Planet’s consumptive water use. For 13 years, she chaired the Scientific Programme Committee for the annual Stockholm Water Symposia, subsequently developed into the current World Water Week in Stockholm. She was also involved in developing the Stockholm Water Prize, so-called water version of the Nobel Prize.
Her 60-year career and pursuit of studies within science made her a role model for young female researchers.
