Regional office of Japan International Cooperation Agency opened in Tbilisi. JICA will cover the region from Georgia.
“The Caucasus Region is very interesting for JICA. We have been cooperating with Georgia for 25 years. Despite of smaller scale at the initial stage, Georgia is an ideal country for establishment of successful relationships”, – stated Shinichi Kitaoka, President of JICA.
Many projects are being implemented in Georgia with the support of JICA, including the Clean Energy by Solar Electricity Generation Project that was opened in 2016 in Tbilisi International Airport. Similar project is being implemented in Ilia State University.
In Georgia, the Agency is financing construction of certain sections of east-west highway.
