JICA has been providing cooperation in these areas for many years. In order to centrally follow up on sustainability-related discussions and further promote organization-wide efforts in the future, the Office for Sustainability Management was established within the General Affairs Department as of April 1, 2023. By taking the lead in promoting sustainability in its own organization and operations, JICA aims to become a more trusted presence among developing countries, partners, and others, and to expand its project impact. 【Reference】 http://www.jica.go.jp/english/notice/2023/20230403_01.html 2023年4月03日 00:00:00 +0900 Measures against Fraud JICA will take measures against the following companies for the period shown below. - DENTSU INC.
