  A special lecture titled ‘Policy Learning for Economic Growth and Industrial Transformation’ was delivered by eminent Professor Dr. Kenichi Ohno of National Graduate Institute of Policy Studies (GRIPS) in the seminar. He focused on the importance how Bangladesh can utilize Japan models for its own economic growth and how to do policy learning on the basis of his experience through industrious dialogue with various countries. JICA Chair DVD Lecture 4 on ‘Economic Growth and Japanese Management’ by Professor Dr. Hiroyuki Itami, President, International University of Japan has also been presented at the beginning of the seminar.

  H. E. Mr. ITO Naoki has said, “Being the largest development partner, our contribution should not be limited to infrastructure building and providing financial resources for this county’s development, but to the areas like knowledge sharing, intellectual dialogue or collaborative research and learning by taking opportunities during the milestone years. Japan and Bangladesh can join more hands for the benefit of both countries.”
