Japan’s Role for Climate Change and Development
◆JICA and Japan’s ODA
• Since 1954, Japan has been providing financial and technical assistance to developing countries through ODA (Official Development Assistance). JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency) is in charge of administering all ODA except contributions to international organizations.
• JICA, taking advantage of accumulated experiences, the results of assisting of developing countries and Japan's technology, conducts multi-benefit assistance, which contributes to sustainable developments in developing countries and simultaneously contributes to resolve various development subjects. JICA assists by mixing organically financial and technical assistance for mitigation measures, which contribute to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emission and for adaptation measures to the negative effects caused by climate change in various sectors .

Essential Elements for
‘Development Effectiveness’
Capacity Development
“The process in which individuals, organizations, institutions, and societies develop “abilities” either individually or collectively (to respond to issues) to perform
functions, solve problems, and set and achieve objectives.”

DAC Criteria for Evaluating Development Assistance
-Relevance
The extent to which the aid activity is suited to the priorities and policies of the target group, recipient and donor.
-Effectiveness
A measure of the extent to which an aid activity attains its objectives.
-Efficiency
Outputs -- qualitative and quantitative -- in relation to the inputs
-Impact
The positive and negative changes produced by a development intervention, directly or indirectly, intended or unintended.
-Sustainability
Whether the benefits of an activity are likely to continue after donor funding has been withdrawn
