African Region

There are still many countries and regions in need of safe water in developing countries. In response to this situation,Japan has been actively playing its international role to tackle with this challenge as one of the leading countries in thefield of water supply. Also, TICAD 4 was held in May 2008, in Yokohama, Japan, and the necessity of continuous support onthe water supply to the African Region was recognized. Since then, JICA in corporation with the City of Yokohama, had beenconducted the training and dialogue program on the "Urban Waterworks Engineering" from 2008 to 2010 to enhance the effortson this issue. In 2011, the program has been renewed and proposed to secure the safe water in developing countriesespecially focusing on the African Region by transferring useful and practical know-how on water supply for urban waterworkssenior engineers engaging in the planning, constructing, and maintenance of water supply system.
