The aim of the article is to indicate current Japan's engagement in world development aid, its origins and directions of further development. Japan's philosophy of ODA, rules of its implementation, geographical distribution and different forms of aid are discussed in the article. Finally Japan's involvement in ODA is compared with ODA donated by other DAC countries.

What is more, Japan's ODA consists of larger percentage of loans and ties aid and lower percentage of grant element in comparison to other donors.}, title={Japan's ODA Contribution to the World Development}, type={artykuł}, keywords={Japan, Official Development Assistance, DAC, aid}, }
