Twenty Second Meeting of the Conference of Ministers of The Economic Commission for Africa : opening address by K.Y. Amoako, executive secretary, ECA
Opening Address by K.Y. Amoako, Executive Secretary, ECA at the Twenty Second Meeting of the Conference of Ministers of The Economic Commission for Africa. Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that; this meeting is the first opportunity for ECA to discuss with you, our Board of Member States, the Commission's plans for a major renewal. It also is an opportunity to discuss with you the United Nations System-wide Special Initiative on Africa. We Africans are resilient, and against the odds of much of global opinion we are coming out of economic depression. Sacrifice and diligence, risk-taking and prudent management, leadership and improved governance, and fostering the private and civil society sectors have all played a role. We at ECA have added reasons for optimism since we benefit from a very active year of the United Nations System. This Conference is the gateway to ECA's future. We look forward very much to your discussion on the renewal.
