Holding YAU-JICA TCP Special Lecture

Yezin Agricultural University (YAU), the country's only agricultural university, has recently received increasing number of visitors from foreign universities and research institutes. Taking the opportunity of drastic politico-economic changes in Myanmar, these institutions expect to strengthen relation and collaboration with YAU. Therefore, we presume that the support for strengthening international exchanges would be one of our important roles in the near future.

To meet the expectation, we set up a series of "YAU-JICA TCP Special Lecture" to create an opportunity for YAU academic staffs and students to interact with foreign researchers. The 1st and the 2nd YAU-JICA TCP Special Lectures were organized and held in March as shown in the following files:

"Agricultural Research and Diffusion of Innovation" (Prof. Kazuo Ogata, Kyushu University)

"Use of DNA markers for rice genetics and breeding" (Prof. Atsushi Yoshimura Kyushu University)

"Economic Development of East Asia Global Value Chains and Agriculture: Lessons for Myanmar" (Prof. Shigeyuki Abe, Doshisha University)
