Abstract
By focusing on the evolution of TICAD from 1993 to 2013, it is evident that TICAD is now part of Japan’s foreign aid policy and development assistance discourse. To deny that would be to refute 20 years of devoted effort toward African development at the highest and field level between African governments, the Japanese government, civil society, and other TICAD co-organizers. The visibility TICAD provides, the scope of its policies and priorities, the influence it has and the development outcome in Africa through sharing Asian experiences is remarkable. Ultimately, TICAD is a process that has made advances and suffered setbacks. Its sustainability should be a common effort.
