On 18 April 2013, new United Nations University Rector David M. Malone met with Japanese journalists at the Japan National Press Club in Tokyo. Rector Malone took the opportunity to highlight his focus on increasing UNU's engagement with the Japanese community which has been a very generous contributor to the University and host for its Headquarters in Tokyo for nearly four decades. Underlining UNU's role as a think tank that should focus on research that is useful to international society, Rector Malone also emphasised how projects supported by Japan have allowed it to reach into top-rank research communities and institutions in Africa and throughout Asia. The Rector outlined UNU's global system of institutes and programmes while stressing a renewed commitment to closely connecting its research and policy development with the needs of the United Nations system.
