Review of economic and social conditions in African least developed countries 1984-1985

The Substantial New Programme of Action (SNPA) for, the 1980s for the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) adopted at Paris in 1981 by the United Nations Conference on the Least Developed Countries was designed as a formula for remedying the constant deterioration of socio-economic conditions and the bleak development prospects of the countries in question. Taking into account the structural-weaknesses prevalent both within-directly productive sectors and within institutions, the Programme set quantified development targets to extricate the LDCs from, the deadlock, These targets, which fall within the framework of the International Development Strategy, provide, inter alia, for, an annual growth of. 7.2 per cent in GDP, 4 per cent in agricultural production, 8 per cent in imports and 9 and 7.5 per cent in manufacturing output and exports respectively.
