JICA
Partnership Programme (JPP)
In international cooperation, the role of NGOs has become increasingly
important and therefore JICA Partnership Programme (JPP) was introduced
in 2002. JPP is a technical cooperation programme implemented by JICA
to contribute towards the social and economic development at the grass-roots
level, in collaboration with partners in Japan, such as NGOs, universities,
local governments and public interest corporations (hereinafter referred
to as “Partners” in Japan).
Indian NGOs need to have a Japanese Partner to take part in this scheme.
The Japanese Partner submits application written in Japanese language
to a JICA domestic centre located in Japan.
