Tokyo International Conference on African Development : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tokyo International Conference on African Development is a conference held every five years in Tokyo, Japan, with the objective "to promote high-level policy dialogue between African leaders and development partners." Japan is a co-host of these conferences. Other co-organizers of TICAD are the United Nations Office of the Special Advisor on Africa (UN-OSSA) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).〔Japan, Ministry of Foreign Affairs: (What is TICAD? )〕 The series has included: TICAD I (1993); TICAD II (1998); TICAD III (2003); and TICAD IV (2008). The next conference is scheduled for Yokohama from 1 to 3 June 2013. TICAD has been an evolving element in Japan's long-term commitment to fostering peace and stability in Africa through collaborative partnerships.〔( "Japan to Increase Asian-African Aid," ) 'New York Times.'' September 14, 1966.〕 In this context, Japan has stressed the importance of "Africa's ownership" of its development as well as of the "partnership" between Africa and the international community.〔 The exchange of views amongst the conference delegates serves to underscore the case for more, not less assistance from the major world economies.〔Attah, Haruna. ( "TICAD ends today Kufuor to close proceedings," ) ''Acra Daily Mail. May 29, 2008.〕 ==Conference chronology== The TICAD conferences were intended to help to promote high-level policy dialogue amongst African leaders and their development partners. It emerged in 1993 after the end of the Cold War in an era of 'aid fatigue' among donor countries, and was critical in regenerating strong donor interest in Africa.〔Tembo, Fletcher (2008) ("Where next for TICAD: Building lasting partnerships" ), London: Overseas Development Institute.〕 TICAD has evolved into a major global forum to promote development on the continent under the principles of African "ownership" and international "partnership." These concepts became essential factors in the launch of the New Economic Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD), a strategy for development designed by Africans themselves.〔Adisa, Banji. ( "Japan to promote Africa's growth at Tokyo confab," ) ''Nigeria Daily News.'' March 25, 2008.〕 Earlier TICAD meetings have also resulted in key outcomes, in particular when Japan is hosting the G8, as it is in 2008. In 2000, for example, Japan hosted the Okinawa G8 Summit and invited leaders from several African countries to attend. Ideas proposed at TICAD II were also taken up by the G8 in the creation of the Global Fund to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.〔
