The deadline for submitting a request for technical cooperation is October 29, 3rd year of Reiwa (Japan time).

[Business Overview] Based on the needs of developing countries, we will target global issues and promote them in collaboration with ODA, which has a plan for future social implementation. SATREPS provides new knowledge and technologies that will lead to the solution of issues (global issues) that are difficult to solve in one country or region and are required to be jointly tackled by the international community and to improve the level of science and technology. The purpose is to acquire and create innovation through these. In addition, through this international joint research, we will work to build a sustainable activity system that contributes to improving the independent R & D capabilities of developing countries and solving problems.
