Statement by K. Y. Amoako, United Nations Under-Secretary-General and Executive Secretary, Economic Commission for Africa at the Sixty-sixth Ordinary Session of the Council of Ministers of the Organization of the African Unity. Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that, the development community, both the international donors and national financial officials, should make investments that are more assertive in the peace process. We must be allies in your peace building, your peacemaking, and your conflict prevention work. The two institutions are working together on a number of issues now. We also have joint responsibilities, along with our brother institution the African Development Bank, in promoting the Abuja process. The sub-regional cooperation, which is being pursued so well in Southern Africa under the leadership of SADC and its member states, is a model for the world of the peace dividends possible when neighbor works with neighbor. Under the context of the Special Initiative, ECA will be redoubling its efforts. ECA will devise useful conceptual and operational mechanisms towards meeting the challenges of recovery and reconstruction on the continent.
