## The Project for Strengthening Nursing Education and In-service training in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic

In Central America and the Caribbean, improving the quality of nurses is a major challenge in aim to reduce the region's constantly high infant and maternal mortality rates. Japan has established a nurse training system and has been providing assistance since August 2007 for a planned period of three years, undertaking efforts to improve the quality of nurses. Senior nursing teachers from Guatemala, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic that received training in El Salvador, which is the base for the project, have returned to there own countries and are providing training. By March 2009, a total of nine training sessions were conducted in these countries, allowing for training 257 senior nurse teachers.

Japan provides a wide range of island nation inhabitants with the opportunity to receive secondary education. Japan also contributes to resolving the region’s environmental problems through such efforts as dispatching experts to the South Pacific Regional Environmental Programme (SPREP), a regional international agency in Samoa, providing training for waste countermeasures, and assisting in the preparation of a waste countermeasures master plan.

Japan also takes part in various regional undertakings in measures against infectious diseases. For instance, in order to strengthen vaccination projects in the region, Japan has extended cooperation together with the World Health Organization and UNICEF in implementing the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI) focused on safe inoculations, including provision of vaccines, maintenance of cold chains, and safe disposal of medical waste. Therein, assistance is provided to improve the rate of immunization against measles and Type-B hepatitis, eradicating filariasis, and HIV/AIDS prevention.

Regarding its collaboration with international organizations, under the framework of the “Accelerated Co-Financing scheme with ADB (ACFA),” Japan provided Samoa with an ODA loan in December 2007, which encompassed the building and repairing of efficient power plants, disaster countermeasures by laying power lines underground, and upgrading to high-efficiency power lines.

## The Project for Improvement of Funafuti Port (Tuvalu)

Funafuti Port is the only port in Tuvalu where large-sized vessels can come alongside the pier. However, problems such as aging piers, lack of equipment for loading and unloading, and container yards with inadequate space cause a decrease in loading and unloading efficiency. Through grant aid totaling ¥930 million, Japan works to develop the port's piers and yards, improve bonded warehouses, and ameliorate loading and unloading efficiency. These efforts have allowed Japan to contribute to the economy of Tuvalu by boosting cargo transport capacity, cutting transport costs, and ensuring that cargo handling and ship navigation is conducted safely.

Cooperation (Note 49) was established in 2007 in order to utilize the knowledge and findings of external advisors and is composed of academics with specialized knowledge and experience in the field of international cooperation, as well as representatives from the media, business community, and NGOs. In March 2009, the panel submitted a final memorandum to the Foreign Minister Hirofumi Nakasone that summed up future issues. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) is utilizing the discussion and recommendations of these panels to undertake such efforts as expanding assistance to Africa, promoting public-private relations, and implementing unified assistance via the new JICA.

### Chart II-17. Breakdown of the Reorganization of the International Cooperation Bureau in FY2009

### 1. Strengthening the Policy and Project Planning Functionality of ODA (Building on the Inauguration of the New JICA)

(1) Aid scheme divisions (the Grant Aid/Technical Cooperation Division and Yen Loan Division) were eliminated, and country assistance planning functions were strengthened (the Third Country Assistance Planning Division was established). A Development Assistance Policy Coordination Division was created. This division promotes a strengthening of aid by coordinating the three types of aid (grant aid, technical cooperation, loan aid).

(2) Bilateral and multilateral aid were made more effective and their linkages were strengthened.

### 2. The Systematic Strengthening of divisions and bureaus related to climate change

In preparation for the Conference of the Parties (COP 15) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change at the end of 2009, the Climate Change Division was raised to the status of “Division.”

Reorganization within the scope of 14 divisions

## (3) Collaboration between Government and Implementing Organizations

MOFA works with aid implementing agencies so that the results of the Overseas Economic Cooperation Council and the Priority Policies in International Cooperation, which are created annually by MOfA, can be reflected in the prompt implementation of assistance.

In October 2008, the former JICA, which carried out technical cooperation and promotion of executing grant aid, merged with the Overseas Economic Cooperation operation in the former JBIC, which was in charge of providing ODA loans, to establish New JICA. Some of the actual implementation duties for grant aid that had previously belonged to MOFA were also transferred to New JICA. This made the New JICA a comprehensive aid implementing organization that can implement the three aid modalities (technical cooperation, grant aid, and ODA loan) in an integrated fashion.
## (4) Enhancing Policy Consultation

Japan holds close policy dialogue with developing nations and works to share mutual awareness and understanding in order to provide more effective development aid. While Japan still places emphasis on requests from developing countries from the perspective of supporting their self-help efforts, it carries out policy consultations with governmental

## (5) Enhancing Functions at the Field Level

In order to enhance policy dialogue conducted with the governments of developing countries, country-based ODA Task Forces (ODA-TFs) made up of overseas diplomatic missions and local JICA offices have been established in many developing nations. ODA-TFs fulfill a wide range of parties from the partner country, at a stage prior to the receipt of a request. The aim of these consultations is to allow the developing countries' development policies and assistance needs to be clearly ascertained and to achieve coordination with Japan's assistance policies.

roles in addition to clarifying the needs of each recipient country. These roles include participating in the formulation of Country Assistance Plans and Rolling Plans, working together with developing countries and multilateral organizations, offering suggestions on possible collaborations and

## (e) Collaboration with International Organizations and Other Countries

In recent years, from the perspective of aid effectiveness, various aid bodies have been working to coordinate their assistance policies in aim to achieve international development goals and agreements, including the MDGs, Paris Declaration $ ^{\text{(Note 52)}} $ , and the Accra Agenda for Action (AAA). $ ^{\text{(Note 53)}} $ Currently, working groups have been formed for such fields as health and education in a large number of aid-receiving nations, whereupon program-type assistance is being implemented in accordance with the sector development strategy of the nation. Japan too, participates in many of these programs, including agriculture in Tanzania and water in Yemen. In addition, in Bangladesh, Japan has drafted common strategic partnerships with the Asia Development Bank (ADB) and the United Kingdom's Department for International Development (DFID) for assisting the poverty reduction strategies (PRS) of Bangladesh. Therein, Japan is advancing coordination and cooperation with these entities to implement aid more effectively and efficiently in a cross-sectoral manner. Japan also currently participates in working groups among a wider range of donors that meet to draft common aid strategies, thereby actively taking part in aid coordination.

Until now, members of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) have been the main aid-providers within the international community. In recent years, however, assistance activities by non-DAC member countries have become noteworthy, including those of Eastern Europe, the Middle East, China, Russia, South Africa, Brazil, as well as Southeast Asian nations such as Singapore and Malaysia. It is important for DAC countries including Japan to share their past experiences regarding aid and cooperate as necessary so that these countries can work together in aim to solve global issues as responsible aid-providing countries.
