Launch of ODA On-Demand-Delivery Lecture

October 5, 2005

In order to deepen understanding of ODA at all levels of Japanese society, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has decided to launch "ODA On-Demand-Delivery Lecture," and will start inviting requests from October 6 (Thu).
In the lectures, officials of the Economic Cooperation Bureau of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will visit such institutions as high schools, universities and colleges, graduate schools, local governments (international exchange associations), international cooperation NGOs, and chambers of commerce and industry, and will lecture on ODA and other matters related to international cooperation. (Topics will be coordinated each time to meet the organizers' requests.)
The Ministry plans to hold the lectures about six times a year.
