Mission report on the sixth meeting of the intergovernmental committee on experts (ICE) of the subregional development centre for southern Africa, Windhoek, Nambibia, 11-13 April 2000
The African Centre for Women was invited to attend the ICE of the SRDC-Southern Africa order to update the participants on what ECA was doing in follow-up to the Fourth World Conference on Women. The ICE meeting included an agenda item that focused on "Relevant Decisions from Regional and Global Conferences". Under this agenda item, ACW had been asked to brief the conference on the ECA Program for Monitoring the Implementation of the Dakar and Beijing Platforms for Action. In response to this request ACW and SRDC decided to present a Joint paper where by the gender focal point at SRDC briefed the meeting on the outcome of the Sixth African Regional Conference on Women which had conducted a mid-decade review of the implementation of the PFA. The meeting was also briefed on the ECA strategy for monitoring and evaluating the outcome of the Sixth African Regional Conference on Women which would constitute its work program in this area for the next five years. The general objective of the work program was to identify five issues that had registered little or no progress in the implementation of the PFA for the past five years and plays catalytic role in advocating for required strategic policy adjustments on this basis. The monitoring process for the next five years would focus particularly on the policy adjustments.
