Report of the third extraordinary meeting of the ECA conference of Ministers : Windhoek, Namibia, 25 to November 1991
The third extraordinary meeting of the Conference of Ministers was held in Windhoek, Namibia. Development strategies for Africa needed to be conceived in a long-term perspective. However, results needed to be achieved in the short term if many African economies were to survive. They needed to be based on sound macro-economic policies which took into account the human resources dimension, and centered on the basic needs of the people as they had been stated in the African Charter for Popular Participation in Development and Transformation. The challenge of economic transformation and sustainable development which Africa faced was enormous. UNDP would do all it could to help countries alleviate the human distress that often accompanied structural adjustment programs, and to develop the long-term strategies needed for sustainable growth.
