Policy Dialogue

To enhance the quality of policy dialogue ECA will position its support based on evidence that can break new ground in terms of policy options, remove systemic bottlenecks, foster agreements for a higher level of collective ambition, and shift implementation into higher gear.  Mindful of the political economy dimensions, ECA will promote a deeper understanding of implications of capacity
development aspirations and help identify feasible implementation strategies, i.e. the“How” to get from policy to action and results.  Efforts will aim to maximize impact, including widening
partnerships and building dynamic coalitions.  Selected processes will be upgraded to strategic initiatives to leverage stakeholders and raise the visibility of critical issues and resources.  Current areas of focus include:

• Macro Development Planing and Statistics
• Economic and Social Development
• Regional Integration and Infrastructure
• Natural Resources and Sustainable Development
• Governance and Human Security
