Peace and security crucial for Africa's development says ECA's Biha

The Economic Commission for Africa will continue to support African countries in their quest for inclusive growth and prosperity, in particular ensuring peace and security issues are addressed as no progress would be registered in unstable areas. Speaking on Niger’s national television following a High-Level Policy Dialogue on Conflicts and Development in the Sahel Region and their consequences on development within the region, Ms. Biha said peace and security were prerequisites for economic development. The objective of the dialogue was mainly to discuss a report that was produced by the ECA on the root causes of conflicts in the Sahel Region and their costs and consequences on development.
