60 YEAR’S HISTORY OF JICA COOPERATION IN TANZANIA (Short:1min)

JICA marks its 60th anniversary of its cooperation activities with Tanzania in 2022. The activities began in 1962, just one year after the independence of Tanganyika, when a single Government Official was accepted for technical training in Japan.
Since then, the activities of JICA continued to grow over the years and now include not only technical cooperation and Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteers (JOCV), but also the provision of grant aid and concessionary loans. Over the 60 years, JICA’s activities have continued to grow and expand to support many social and economic development activities.JICA will carry out its activities in line with Tanzania's development plan.
