| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to examine the current situation of education in Sub-Saharan African countries and their education policy, and to explore the characteristics of Japan's educational cooperation in comparison with the activities of other donor countries and agencies. This study also intends to contribute to international development cooperation from academic viewpoints by strengthening and promoting practical research and development. These pieces of research have provided systematic analysis of realities in African education and presented the implications for Japan's international cooperation models in education and development. This extensive research has certainly contributed to policy and project formulation in development aid agencies as well as to the qualitative and quantitative expansion of academic research in this field. Moreover, international exchange and cooperation in Japan would be further promoted by sharing the outcomes and procedures of the study with those concerned in both African and donor countries.
The final report of the study comprises more than fifty articles and research notes, some of which have been published in the Journal of International Cooperation in Education issued by the Center for the Study of International Cooperation in Education, Hiroshima University. They can be divided into four categories as follows :
1. Review of education and development in Africa,
2. Aid policy and practice of other donor countries in education and development towards Africa,
3. Implications of Japan's international cooperation in education to Africa, and
4. Country-specific studies in education, development and international cooperation.
