The Future of Development Cooperation in a World of Disruptions

Please join the CSIS Project on Prosperity and Development to hear  from Dr. TANAKA Akihiko, President of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). This year marks the 70^th anniversary of Japan’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) to developing nations. President TANAKA will be discussing the evolution of Japan’s ODA and its approach to strengthen Japan’s engagement with developing nations over time, particularly in light of the recent divisions in the world. In addition to a keynote address, the program will feature a discussion on how Japan views its role in a geostrategic sense, and how JICA hopes to contribute to a free, peaceful, and prosperous world.
