Dr. Ibrahim Assane Mayaki, CEO of the NEPAD Agency
Welcome to the new NEPAD website and to our new blog. This website will be officially launched at a forthcoming continental engagement. But today we took the unusual step of pre-launching the site so that you can give us feedback on what extra information you might want to see on the site.
Our target audiences have already asked, for example, for information on programmes and projects that we are facilitating and coordinating and in which regions. In other instances, we are also being asked to highlight our successes and to elaborate on our new strategic direction. And, since we are busy working to avail this information, we’ll be posting it on the site.
Please remember that this is a preview of the site, so not everything is up and running in top form. But, the main content is on there and that’s what we want your opinion on. You can give us your feedback by responding to this blog.
So, enjoy the site - we look forward to your comments.
Best wishes,
Dr. Ibrahim Assane Mayaki.
CEO of the NEPAD Planning and Coordinating Agency (NEPAD Agency)
