Report of the seventeenth session: regional coordination mechanism for Africa
The agenda for the session was provided a platform for implementing the global Sustainable Development Goals. The global partnerships could undoubtedly provide the impetus for tackling the key socioeconomic development challenges facing Africa, especially if those partnerships were to be aligned with the strategic vision of the continent and bolstered by a universal continental voice. RCM-Africa was an opportunity for the continent to model what such a partnership could be. Global partnerships were fundamental for addressing international concerns such as climate change, conflict, insecurity and financial instability. Global partnerships should be mutually beneficial and promote the autonomy of African States, including through support for skills training, technological developments and industrialization, with a view to addressing Africa’s development priorities. Furthermore, future global partnerships should include actors such as the private sector, members of parliament, civil society, women and youth.
