The Project for Construction of Judo and Sports Center

With careful attention to rapid changes in global affairs, KRC improves the business environment in developing countries by helping to strengthen industrial competitiveness and to develop special economic zones, and by providing a wide range of support that uses digital technology (for entrepreneurs and to improve public service delivery). We also boost the private sector in both Japan and developing countries by leveraging domestic and international public-private partnerships (PPPs). This is done through support for Japanese businesses to expand overseas, overseas infrastructure development, and business matchmaking between Japan and developing countries.

Through technical cooperation in developing countries, we are working toward the realization of a world where everyone can access high-quality education. This includes support for the formulation of educational plans, capacity building for managing educational institutions, teacher training and development of learning materials. By collaborating with the ministry in charge of education, local educational authorities and schools in each country, we work in various stages and areas of education such as basic, higher and inclusive education.

With an aim to reduce disparities in developing countries, we provide effective and practical solutions and improvement strategies to help the socially vulnerable, develop rural areas and improve governance. In particular, we play key roles in making improvements to society in conflict-affected areas that lead to restoration and conflict-recurrence prevention by enhancing fair and reliable public administration, employment promotion and community capacity building. In Japan, to facilitate regional development and improve the living standards of local populations , we offer consultation service to national ministries and agencies, as well as to local governments.

KRC assists governments of low and middle income countries to improve the well-being of their people, including socially vulnerable populations, from perspectives of both healthcare and social protection. KRC has provided the assistance this through technical cooperation and research activities to build human capacity among healthcare professionals, build hospitals, improve hospital management systems and strengthen social security systems. More specifically, KRC has worked for addressing a wide range of social issues, such as malnutrition, weak health care system, insufficient social security systems, non-communicable diseases (NCDs), disability and development, and aging populations.
