Thank you for visiting the JICA Kenya Office website!
We are excited to share with you our latest activities and achievements in Kenya, Eritrea, Seychelles, and Somalia.
2023 marked a remarkable milestone – six decades of partnership between Kenya and Japan. Building on this enduring bond, JICA Kenya office remains committed to supporting the development plans and strategies of the respective governments. Our dynamic cooperation activities have contributed to transforming societies and positively impacting people’s lives and livelihoods.
Acknowledging the world's fragility due to threats like unsustainable economies, climate change, terrorism, pandemics, and other global challenges, we remain dedicated to collaborative efforts with all stakeholders, working towards a better future.
To achieve this, we will continue to promote development cooperation that meets the needs of Africa. We will strengthen our cooperation with development partners, private companies, NGOs, universities, and research institutes. We will also explore more effective and strategic cooperation by incorporating new ideas and innovative technologies into JICA’s experience so far.
