Partnerships with the UN System
In recent years, the UN System has emerged as one of the major pillars of international support for the AU and NEPAD programme. The nature and scope of that support has broadened in the past few years, encompassing a variety of activities including technical assistance for institutional development, capacity-building, project development, resource mobilisation and advocacy.
Douala, 06 December 2014 (ECA) – The 2nd phase of the Common Indicative Programmed (CIP II) adopted in 2013 by partner institutions of the Sub-Regional Coordination Mechanism of the UN System’s support for the implementation of the African Union and NEPAD programme in Central Africa (SRCM-CA) has recorded progress but it is imperative to rake-in financial resources to service a number of its activities that still lay fallow. That’s the major take-home from the Sixth Session of SRCM-CA which has just rounded-off in Douala, Cameroon.
