The activities of the sub-program are geared to generating greater understanding of the key issues in Africa’s development. Focus is placed on economy policy analysis for sustained growth, and macro-economic stability, trade and investment promotion, debt sustainability, and social policy and poverty reduction. The goals which have been set for this subprogram will be achieved through the preparation of country studies, research papers, and analytical synthesis papers, including policy position papers. Also, more effective use will be made of policy seminars, conferences, and training workshops addressed to specific development issues, bringing together senior national policy-makers and representatives of civil society and the private sector and facilitating a shared understanding of the development challenges that African countries face and the policy options that are available. These activities are expected to foster the adoption and implementation of sound economic and social policies in Africa conducive to sustained economic growth, to strengthen and improve the capacity of African countries to assess and monitor poverty; and enhance the understanding of the process of policy formulation regarding the role of trade and investment in economic growth, and in particular reviewing developments in Africa's debt and efforts to reduce the debt burden.
