The Japan Institute of International Affairs (JIIA), now celebrating its 50th anniversary, is a private, nonpartisan policy think-tank focused on foreign and security policy issues. On top of a wide range of research programs, the institute promotes dialogues and joint studies with other institutions and experts at home and abroad, examines Japanese foreign policy and makes proposals to the government, and disseminates information on international relations to the public.
The institute, together with a large network of affiliated scholars, aims to serve as an indispensable resource related to international affairs in a complex world.

JIIA presents its 2011-2012 annual brochure. Look inside to find a highlight of JIIA's recent activities and a summary of its organization.
