This focus recognizes that capacity remains the critical missing link for fulfilling the development agendas of most African countries. The objective of this report is to identify, map, and analyze the key capacity dimensions that are important to address and enhance national capabilities for implementing the SDGs in Africa. The exercise views the SDGs as a unique opportunity for governments to redirect investments in economic development, inclusive growth, and mechanisms to sustain achievements. The “Capacity-for what?” question was framed fundamentally as well as strategically: What capabilities need to be in place to take advantage of the opportunities presented by the SDGs to build economies that can sustain the development aspiration of AU member states. | Copyright Holder | ACBF | Copyright URL | http://www.acbf-pact.org | ISBN/ISSN | 9781779370846 | Filesize | 2847582 MB | File Format | PDF | [ View / download original document ] |
