4 Direction of JICA s Assistance for Low-Carbon Growth and Sustainable Development in Developing Countries JICA is taking actions to support for climate change measures based on the following principles. Comprehensive Assistance Climate Change, A Global Agenda Climate Compatible Sustainable Development PDCA Cycle (MRV, etc.) Technical Cooperation Financial Assistance Policy Dialogue Public Private Partnership Research/Studies <Mitigation: Low-Carbon Society> Strategic Mitigation Actions Low-Carbon Technologies Efficient Use of Resources, etc. Policy & Infrastructure Reform, Finance Mechanism, Human Resource Development Modeling/Vulnerability Assessment Enhancing Adaptive Capacity Resilient Infrastructure <Adaptation: Climate Resilient Society> Energy, Transport, Forestry, Waste Management, etc. Reduction of GHG Emission Responding to Climate Change Enhancing Adaptive Capacity Equitable Growth Sustainable Developme nt Human Security Disaster Risk Management, Water, Agriculture, Sanitation, etc.
