PlaceJICA Ichigaya Building

On October 28, JICA-RI Deputy Director Naohiro Kitano discussed on global issues with Ms. Nanna Hvidt, Director of the Danish Institute for International Studies (DIIS). Invited by the Japanese government, she visited JICA-RI during her stay in Japan.

DIIS is a Danish think tank founded in 2003 by merging four well-established research institutes. About 50 researchers with expertise in diverse fields conduct a wide range of interdisciplinary studies on international agendas: conflicts, economic policies, diplomatic relations, and aid policies.

She also expressed her hope to promote interaction between DIIS and JICA-RI.
