Report to the Conference of Ministers responsible for human resources planning, development and utilization on the status of the ECA administered expanded training and fellowship porgramme for Africa
The fellowship activity of the Commission was initiated in 1965 in response to the needs expressed by member Governments for assistance in identifying and securing for their nationals training opportunities in development oriented fields. Between 1965 and 1990 over 1952 fellowships have been provided. In the early years of the aprogramme, most of the fellowship offers were made by non-African countries for training in the offering country. Then in 1977 the Conference of Ministers passed Commission resolution 306 (XIII), which called upon the Secretariat, Inter Alia, to take action aimed at fostering inter-African resolution 318(XIII), which inter alia, called for "the mobilization of resources for the operation of a training and fellowship programme for Africa". In response to these directives and in accordance with the guidelines established by the Lagos Plan of Action for co-operation and collective self-reliance in human resources development, the Secretariat intensified its effort to mobilize recourses for training within Africa, as well as for training overseas.
