On this auspicious day a new window has opened in my life after knowing the multi-dimensional working experience of Professor Ogawa with various International Organizations. Through positive and active discussion with variations in presentation, we are strongly eager to improve our knowledge and abilities related to education policy analysis, education development, education risk management targeting sustainable development goals. Therefore, it is the best platform to get proper guide for further research, changing mind set, achieving soft skills and building a strong network for successful career. Nevertheless, Ogawa Jemi is producing potential candidates every year.
