Background and Objectives
Under the JICA Graduate School of Development Cooperation Initiative, JICA invites approximately 1,000 students from about 100 countries to Japan each year as JICA exchange students and provides them with opportunities to study in master’s or doctoral programs at Japanese universities.
JICA exchange students are government officials, researchers, and private-sector personnel in their home countries, and are expected to use the knowledge, skills, and networks they have acquired in Japan to become future leaders in solving problems and guiding the development of their home countries.
The “JICA Networking Fair in Spring 2024” will be held as an opportunity for Japanese private companies and organizations that are considering internships, employment, and overseas business development of high-level foreign human resources to network with JICA students.
We are looking for companies and organizations to exhibit their booths.
