Among these problems are climate change, youth unemployment, migration, gender inequality, infrastructure deficits, domestic resource mobilization, and regional integration. Addressing them will require massive investments in capacity development. Capacity development in its various dimension—human, institutional, and soft (leadership, political will, and upholding panAfrican values)—is vital and inevitable for realizing the aspirations of Agenda 2063. And countries need to come up with well-articulated capacity development programs aligned to their national development plans for the effective implementation of programs and policies at global, continental, and national level.This Strategy will be implemented through four mutually supportive strategic pillars: enabling effective delivery of continental development priorities, supporting countries to achieve tangible development results, enhancing private sector and civil society contributions to sustainable development, and leveraging knowledge and learning to increase development effectiveness. These pillars will be aligned to four core programmatic areas. The Foundation’s resources will be focused on selective capacity development priorities that are critical to supporting the overall continental development agenda rather than spreading them too thinly on myriad intervention areas | Copyright Holder | ACBF | Copyright URL | http://www.acbf-pact.org | Filesize | 1469336 MB | File Format | PDF | [ View / download original document ] |
