This paper summarizes the efforts for drawing up long-range roadmaps that were undertaken by the Transdisciplinary Federation of Science and Technology (TRAFST) during the 2007 fiscal year as one of its key activities. Four basic roadmaps were completed by the dedicated working groups, each consisting of scientists and engineers with different backgrounds from different member societies of the TRAFST, and these are briefly introduced in this paper. Additional roadmaps corresponding to the three items of the 2005 Nagano Declaration issued by the TRAFST are also shown.
