After extensive research and interviewing leaders inside and outside of Africa, the consultants present a number of findings: The process of reform in ECA has been exemplary in its openness, professionalism and consistency. Reform is close to being a regular part of annual planning. ECAs coordination with other parts of the UN system has two aspects. Regional coordination with UN agencies is modest, in fact, but far better than other regions. The establishment by the UNDP of a new major office in Africa requires the UN's leadership to assure that duplication and dysfunctional stress are not its fruits. ECA enjoys far better project-by-project cooperation with other parts of the UN than prior to the reforms. ECAs relations with the Bretton Woods institutions (BWIs) have been dramatically transformed from unproductive indifference into relations marked by mutual respect, constructive engagement and effective influence on the BWIs.
