Six Japanese NGOs, including Japan International Volunteer Center (JIVC) and Japan Sotoshu Relief Committee (JSRM), supplemented UNTAC's work in the field of repatriating refugees and promoting human rights education. For example, JIVC repaired vehicles used to transport refugees and launched training programs for medical staff. Their projects were small-scale but effective in meeting needs at the community level.
