About the Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects (GGP)

The Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects (GGP) is a financial assistance scheme of the Government of Japan that is offered for developing countries. The GGP supports various development projects proposed bodies such as NGOs and local public authorities. The grant amount for each project is up to 10 million Japanese yen (approx. USD 90,000). The Embassy of Japan in Myanmar assists about 40 – 50 projects per year through this GGP scheme. Some examples of GGP include construction of school buildings, rural health care facilities, rural roads and small scale bridges and provision of medical equipment, etc.
