My Priorities as CEO
From a programme that lacked a legally grounded mandate and an inability to evaluate the impact of many of its activities, NEPAD was at the beginning of the year transformed into a full-blown technical body within the African Union and underwent a name change.
Those changes have meant although the newly formed NEPAD Planning and Coordinating Agency (NPCA) or NEPAD Agency’s mandate hasn’t change much, it now takes on a bent that’s far more focused on implementation.
