Abstract
As
proclaimed
in
the
Development
Cooperation
Charter
of
2015,
'Japan
will
provide
assistance
[to
Africa]
through
joint
efforts
of
the
public
and
private
sector
through
the
process
of
the
...
TICAD
so
that
Africa's
remarkable
growth
in
recent
years
based
on
expanding
trade,
investment
and
consumption
will
lead
to
further
development
for
both
Japan
and
Africa.'
The
presentation
will
discuss
the
TICAD
process
in
the
context
of
the
priority
policy
issues
outlined
in
the
Development
Charter
while
assessing
the
content
of
mutual
interest
between
Japan
and
the
African
countries
as
expressed
in
the
Development
Charter.
The
role
of
the
relevant
Ministries
in
the
TICAD
process
would
be
invoked
in
an
attempt
to
map
out
what
Japan's
national
interests
are
in
Africa.
Salient
features
of
TICAD
IV,
V
and
VI
will
serve
as
points
of
reference
for
the
analysis.
At
a
more
general
level
the
discussion
will
also
assess
the
Charter's
references
to
Japan's
'proactive
contribution
to
peace
based
on
the
principle
of
international
cooperation'
