In his keynote address at TICAD VII, Prime Minister Abe mentioned our activities, which are ongoing under the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for Cooperation in Space Science, Earth Science, Satellite Development, and Geospatial Data Processing in Rwanda.
“Let us raise our eyes now to a place beyond the earth.
Soon, up there, a small-sized satellite built by Rwanda together with The University of Tokyo will emerge. From space, the satellite will observe crop harvests and the state of water resources in Rwanda.”
