Objective
Japan is the leading country for providing ODA (Official Development Assistance), but the ratio of its ODA to GNP is still low. Now many Japanese NGOs (Non-Government Organization) are working for international cooperation. The course is designed to provide basic information on the activities of ODA in Japan and Japanese NGOs from the viewpoints of civil society. Specific subjects in the course are focused on international cooperation for health and education, and the real situations in several developing countries.
