Annual report 2012: meeting of the Committee of Experts of the 5th Joint Annual Meetings of the AU Conference of Ministers of Economy and Finance and ECA Conference of African Ministers of Finance, Planning and Economic Development
The activities carried out under this subprograms during the past year were aimed at strengthening the capacity of member States to design and implement appropriate policies and programs for achieving higher and sustained growth for poverty reduction, with particular emphasis on the following areas: macroeconomic analysis; finance, industry and investment; MDGs and LDCs monitoring; and support to the implementation of the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD).
