SSF JR 02-118 PREFACE In response to a request from the Government of the Republic of Malawi, the Government of Japan decided to conduct the National School Mapping and Micro-Planning Project and entrusted it to the Japan International Cooperation Agency. JICA selected and dispatched a project team headed by Ms. Yoko Ishida of the KRI International Corp., to Malawi, four times between November 2000 and July 2002. In addition, JICA set up an advisory committee headed by Mr. Nobuhide Sawamura, Associate Professor of Hiroshima University, between October 2000 and June 2002, which examined the project from specialist and technical point of view. The team held discussions with the officials concerned of the Government of Malawi and implemented the project activities in the target areas. Upon returning to Japan, the team conducted further analyses and prepared this final report. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of the quality education provision in Malawi and to the enhancement of friendly relations between our two countries.
