 note = {The International Cooperation Center for Agricultural Education (ICCAE) was established in April 1999 and is one of the five centers for international cooperation established in Japan, but the only one dedicated to agriculture. In pursuit of its vision of becoming a leading center for international cooperation in agriculture education, the Center’s Project Development Division implements activities towards the conduct of evaluation studies, development of agricultural projects and technologies, training of human resources, and creation of scientific solutions to address problems related to agriculture and environmental issues through international cooperation. The other division, which is in charge of Network Development, endeavors to develop and coordinate a human resource database for teachers and researchers in domestic universities, research institutes, and high schools in the field of agricultural sciences in order to achieve effective international cooperation in agricultural education. In addition, it establishes well-working consortia and cooperative networks between and among international and/or domestic organizations. Over the past years, ICCAE has been involved in projects such as the development of higher education in agricultural universities in Cambodia and Namibia, and the African Institute for Capacity Development (AICAD). The Center’s collaboration with the Japanese International Cooperation Agency (JICA) is also crucial in the human resource development of countries in Africa. The activities promote the project’s goal to strengthen practical education and research in the universities to assist in the alleviation of poverty in each developing country. ICCAE continuously explores ways to enhance linkages with international institutions to promote cooperation in the area of agriculture. Establishment of linkages has been found to be very effective and efficient way of ensuring cooperation in Asia and Africa. The Southeast Asian Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture (SEARCA) and ICCAE look forward to further collaboration in the project with Royal University of Agriculture in Cambodia.},
