Pakistan

While Pakistan is a large country with a population of over 200 million, it faces many development challenges. In addition, Pakistan is a geopolitically important country surrounded by India, China, Afghanistan, and Iran, and the international community increasingly place importance on its stable development.
JICA has been providing assistance in three focus areas: 1) ensuring human security and social stabilization through human capital investment and social service expansion, 2) enhancing high quality economic growth through improvement of investment environment, and 3) establishment of peace and stabilization. In particular, we are addressing development issues such as education, health, water and sanitation, and gender through a flexible combination of technical cooperation and grant aid, as well as supporting disaster reduction measures at the national level by leveraging Japan's knowledge as a disaster-prone country.
