Exhibition

This year, JICA Global Plaza celebrates its first 20 years. Since opening its doors in 2006 as a hub for “understanding, studying and acting on” global challenges, it has increased awareness of international cooperation and given rise to encounters that proved to be the first step to future careers.
In today’s world, all manner of issues are churning away simultaneously, be it climate change-induced disasters, disease outbreaks, conflict, humanitarian crisis, poverty or educational disparities. And as an importer of large quantities of energy, food and other essentials, Japan is deeply connected to the wider world. Our everyday life is sustained by what we might call this global mutual support network.
In the aftermath of World War II, Japan benefited from large amounts of aid from the international community and today, we offer international cooperation hand in hand with countries around the world. Join us to reflect on how international cooperation works to save lives, protect livelihoods and build communities with a more secure future, as we search for clues to navigate the path ahead.
