The United Nations second development decade and its implications for the African region
The current decade was designated as the United Nations Development Decade by the General Assembly in 1961- Each developing country was asked to set its own growth rate, taking as an objective a minimum annual growth rate of 5 per cent by the end of the ten-year period Member States were called upon to pursue policies and to take measures aimed at helping the developing countries achieve that goal (resolution 1710 (XVI). Over the years, the operation of the Decade has been the subject of periodic review, particularly by the Assembly and the Economic and Social Council, on the basis of progress reports by the Secretary General.
