Report on the external review of the African Institute for Economic Development and planning (IDEP)

At the thirty-ninth session of the Commission held in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso in May 2006, the African Ministers of Finance, Planning and Economic Development of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) considered the critical financial situation of the African Institute for Economic Development and Planning (IDEP). They requested the Executive Secretary of ECA to make proposals for improving IDEP and to report to the fortieth session of the Commission. Consequently, the Executive Secretary of ECA has fielded a mission, led by Mr. Peter Anyang’ Nyong’o, Chairman, African Research and Resource Forum (ARRF) and Mr. Alioune Sall, Executive Director, African Futures Institute to undertake an independent review of IDEP with the view of providing ECA with recommendations that would be submitted to the African Ministers at their meeting to be held from 2 to 3 April 2007 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The report will be subsequently finalized to take into account the deliberations of the meeting. The present note responds to that request and contains the preliminary findings and recommendations of the Review Panel.
