Place connecting you with the world

JICA encourages Japanese people to be more interested and more involved in international cooperation activities. In this regard, the JICA Global Plaza was established as a hub for citizen participation in international cooperation in Tokyo, in 2006. We serve to provide guidance and assistance to people who are working in international cooperation activities and are willing to support international cooperation.
The Nagoya Global Plaza in Nagoya City of Aichi Prefecture, and the Hokkaido Global Plaza in Sapporo city of Hokkaido Prefecture are also opened.

We have the following facilities for your use.

Virtual Global Experience Area (exhibition and consultation area)

You can learn about different cultures of other countries in the world, as well as global issues such as poverty, hunger and climate change through an interactive display. Our Global Concierge with abundant experiences in international cooperation and global issues will guide you (The exhibition is mainly displayed with Japanese caption and some with English as well).
