Japan/South Africa Call for Joint Research Projects 2018
On 28 August 2003, South Africa signed an agreement on cooperation in science and technology with Japan, followed two years later by a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the National Research Foundation (NRF) and the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) as implementing agencies. The implementation of this MoU led to annual cycles of joint research funding between the two countries.
