Issues on multimodal transport development in Africa : human resource development and training in multimodal transport/freight forwarding subsector

Under UNCTADA II and SSATP programmes, the Economic Commission for Africa in collaboration with UN specialized agencies dealing with transport development in Africa, formed a coalition to look into human resources and institutional development in transport and communications. Case studies were prepared by various UN agencies covering all modes by transport including multimodal transport/freight forwarding. The outcome of the findings and recommendations of the case studies were disseminated by ECA through sub-regional and regional seminars The objectives of each module are briefly explained leaving open the task of the development and validation of training materials. It is recommended that past effort in the development of the sub-sector should be intensified further, and those sub-regional institutions conducting courses should be given minimum support in the implementation of their training activities.
