Abstract

This chapter reviews the origins of South-South Cooperation (SSC) and briefly explains why Chinese, Indian, and Korean SSC partnerships represent a risky opportunity for African development when compared to TICAD. It then examines the importance of Japan’s International Cooperation Agency SSC (JICA) and Triangular Cooperation (TrC) projects in TICAD, focusing on two major projects in Mozambique: the ProSavana agriculture model and the Nacala Economic Development Corridor. It concludes that like Southern partnerships’ SSCs, JICA also has its own failures.
