"Making Aid Work Better for Africa": Statement by K.Y. Amoako executive secretary economic commission for Africa houses of parliament, United Kingdom
Statement by K.Y. Amoako Executive Secretary Economic Commission for Africa at the Houses of Parliament, United Kingdom. Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that, Africa has a higher profile in the international arena because deeper thinking about 9/11 has made the link between insecurity and poverty more evident, and because the long-term oil crisis highlights Africa's potential as a lifeline for Western economies. HIV/AIDS is systematically eroding vital human resources in all sectors and at all levels - most troublingly in health and education. Existing service delivery constraints can be expected to worsen, with productivity and efficiency impacts across all government agencies, private sector businesses, and civil society groups. The empirical data and analytical abilities regarding aid and its impacts are sharper now than in the past, with a far better ability to relate aid to policy change, and to identify areas where aid can be effective.
