International year for the mobilization of financial and technological resources to increase food and agricultural production in Africa
Over the last two decades* Africa has gradually lost its ability to feed its population and finance its investment for its agricultural sector. It is increasingly depending on industrialized countries for its needs. At the same time, earnings from major export crops have drastically fallen while external debts of many African States have multiplied over the last decade. Sub-Saharan Africa is the poorest part of the world's economy, the only region where the rate of growth of population is increasing and where average per capita income is likely to continue to fall during 1985-1995, involving an estimated fall in per capita GDP of 0.7 per cent. II The logical question, therefore, is whether there is any hope for the people of Africa?

Statement of the Executive Secretary of The Economic Commission For Africa at The First African First Ladies Summit
Statement of the Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa at the First African First Ladies Summit. The Executive Secretary on his remarks outlined that, the fact that women bear the disproportionate burden of war and conflict, they are seldom involved in the decision-making processes that lead to conflict and peace at the national and international levels. At ECA, in our efforts to carry out strategic institutional changes that will render our role in promoting development in Africa more effective, we have decided to pay special attention to gender issues both within ECA and in our member States. The role that the First Ladies of Africa have carved out for themselves as ambassadors of peace through peace missions in war-torn countries and as advocates for the inclusion of women in negotiating teams as part of the mechanism for conflict prevention, management and resolution, will add a welcome voice to the recommendations of the African and Global Platforms for Action.

Les problèmes fonciers au Cameroun oriental
Les problèmes fonciers, comme ceux de la famille africaine, sont des plus complexes et des plus déroutants. Le Cameroun, avec sa diversité ethnique, présente un complexe inextricable de différentes conceptions de droits fonciers. Cependant, sauf dans les zones surpeuplées et parfois dans les villes, les tensions provenant des problèmes fonciers étaient pratiquement inconnues au Cameroun jusqu'à il y a environ une trentaine d’années. Avec le développement économique et surtout le surpeuplement de certains secteurs, avec l'aménagement des villes, l'Etat s’est vu obligé de s'immiscer dans les affaires foncières. Et ce depuis longtemps d'ailleurs, dès la colonisation allemande (1 884 - 1916). Les allemands avaient lancé l'ébauche d'une législation foncière.

Agricultural producer prices
The prices relating to agriculture do not include only those of agricultural products, but also of products necessary for agriculture the price and rent of land as well as the prices of consumption products bought by farmers. The statistics relating to these prices are not essentially different from those of general price statistics of goods and services, most of the problems which are present when one fines price of goods and services or when such statistics are compiled are also found in agricultural prices. One would not. then examine but the most important of them in this study. On the other hand the prices paid by farmers, that is the prices of the products necessary to agriculture and for consumption of rural families are not dealt with here. The problems concerning these prices are the same as those dealt with in other documents on producer, wholesale and retail prices.

New study reveals huge impact of hunger on economy of Malawi : joint news release
Malawi’s economy loses nearly MKW 150 billion (nearly US$ 600 million) annually due to the effects of child undernutrition. This is the alarming finding of a new study launched today in Lilongwe. The Cost of Hunger in Africa: The Social and Economic Impact of Child Undernutrition in Malawi report shows that the country loses significant sums of money each year as a result of child undernutrition through increased healthcare costs, additional burdens to the education system and lower productivity by its workforce. It estimates that child undernutrition cost Malawi 10.3 percent of Gross Domestic Product in 2012. The findings of the Malawi report show that in order for Malawi to achieve sustainable human and economic growth, special attention must be given to the early stages of life. Without measures to combat and eliminate undernutrition, the cost to Malawi at current rates could increase at a higher pace by 2025, leading the country to not meeting the World Health Assembly global target for reduction of stunting.

Report on measures to be taken to improve basic statistics on women in agriculture in Africa
In Africa, agriculture is the most important sector in national economies. About 80 per cent of the active population works in agriculture. Further, apart from few exceptions, agriculture makes up more than 50 percent of gross national product. Nevertheless, Africa remains the only region in the world in which agricultural production declined between 1970 and 1980, when the growth rate was less than 2 per cent and moreover the gross national product (GNP) per head is one of the lowest in the world. Over the present decade, in spite of efforts by African governments, the situation seems hardly to have improved 1/ and the medium-term prospects are most gloomy. According to the FAO report, inr-1988 locusts continued to plague several African countries, particularly in the Sahelian zone and in several countries of the Maghreb and some experts estimate that the situation is not likely to improve in the next 10 years, given the available control measures and the speed of reproduction of the locust. To this must be added natural calamities, such as floods (the Sudan) or civil wars which is a serious impediment to agricultural production in several countries of the continent.

The system of registration in Ghana
The original and primary owners of lands in. Ghana are the stools or skins. Families and individuals do own lands, the original titles to which are derived from stools or skins- Before 1957, all lands of what was called the Northern Territories were held in trust for the chiefs of the Northern Territories try the Governor whilst Ashanti lands, having being occupied as a result of conquest, were British Crown lands. In the South, then called the Colony, the position has always been normal, that is, only stools, indigenous families, own lands except when there has been a sale, lease or concession to an alien concerned.

Malawian president urges finance and development ministers to promote sustainable growth before macro-economic stability
This is the third time the African Union Commission and the Economic Commission for Africa are jointly holding the annual meetings of finance, planning and economic development ministers. While commending the timeliness of the theme of this year’s meetings, its pointed out the poor degree of policy implementation as a serious impediment to the mobilization for development and people’s welfare. The Chairperson of the AUC noted that: “There is no genuine dynamic for speeding up the transformation and growth of African economies, for creating new job opportunities and containing the scourge of unemployment, all of which are compounded by the undiversified nature of our national economies and, by implication, our sources of economic growth”.

Planning structure for the development of the agriculture sector in Zambia
Soon after independence in 1964, Zambia embarked on a process of
planned economic development.To start with the country put into effect the transitional Development Plan which covered a period of 18 months from January 1964 to June 1966 (including six months of the Emergency Plan) and was "primarily a holding operation" with emphasis on essential services.However, the Transitional Plan was immediately followed by comprehensive First national Development Plan (FNDP) which was scheduled to run from July 1966 to December 1970, and the Second National Development Plan 1972-76 (SHOP) which is at present being implemented.

Rectas: blazing the trail in capacity building for geoinformation production and management for sustainable management of land ,environment and natural resources in Africa
The need for a Regional Cartographic Centre was first mooted at the 1st United Nations (UN) Cartographic Conference held in 1963 in Nairobi, Kenya. Consequently, the 8th Session of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) Conference of Ministers held in Addis-Ababa, Ethiopia, in 1964 passed Resolution 164 (VIII) calling for the creation of Regional Centres for Training in Photogrammetry, Photo-Interpretation and Airborne Geophysical Surveys. In 1971, four founding member states (Benin, Ghana, Nigeria and Senegal) signed the principal agreement establishing the Centre. Four other member states joined afterwards, namely: Burkina (in 1981), Mali (in 1982), Cameroon (in 1983) and Niger (inl984). The Centre was declared open on 21st October 1972 with the then Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), Dr. R.K.A. Gardiner, as the first Chairman of the Governing Council.

Workshop on institutional and strategic frameworks for sustainable development in Africa :final report
The Workshop on Institutional and Strategic Frameworks for Sustainable Development in Africa constituted an integral part of Africa’s regional preparations for the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in June 2012.The main objectives of the workshop were to: Examine and adequately define the institutional framework for sustainable development in Africa, taking into account existing institutions at regional and sub regional levels; Examine institutions, policies and strategies for sustainable development at international, regional and national level, taking into account the extent to which such institutions incorporate key requirements of sustainable development, including balanced and integrated development, and intra and inter-generational equity issues; and Provide the opportunity to further disseminate the findings of the two ECA-led studies on national councils for sustainable development (NCSDs) and national strategies for sustainable development (NSSDs), and to obtain relevant updates from selected agencies and countries. The intent was to promote experience sharing and knowledge networking with a view to enhancing the learning and implementation process.

Bulletin de l'économie agricole en Afrique no. 1
Ce bulletin a pour objet de donner une diffusion aussi large que possible, sur le continent africain, aux expériences acquises par les pays Afrique en matière de développement agricole. Trop souvent de précieux renseignements restent ignores hors du pays ou ils ont été réunis, de brillants résultats en matière de développement passent inaperçus de pays voisins qui cherchent, pourtant, à résoudre des analogues.

Integrated implementation of UN and AU guidelines improves land tenure governance in Africa
The 6th Capitalization Meeting of the European Union-funded Land Governance Program opened in Addis Ababa Wednesday with project implementers meeting to address implementation challenges and advance their knowledge and skills. The three-day meeting will allow participants to discuss land governance issues in Africa and related issues like the elimination of hunger, poverty, and the sustainable use of natural resources. The traditional and cultural precedents of land ownership and rights present challenges in many countries to achieve food security and sustainable development goals. The EU-supported land governance programme contributes to the implementation of the AU Declaration on Land Issues and Challenges by integrating application of the AU Framework and Guidelines on Land Policy in Africa (F&G) and the UN Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security (VGGT) at country level.

A framework agenda for building and utilizing critical capacities in Africa
Capacity building is the key to Africa's accelerated development. The major reason for the generally observed failure in the efforts deployed during the past two decades to put Africa on the path of accelerated growth and sustainable development has been the lack of systematic action on building and enhancing the critical capacities needed to sustain growth and development. The Framework Agenda consists of two parts. Part I contains three chapters. This first chapter has given a brief outline of concepts and definitions and the imperative of capacity, for capacity building. The third chapter discusses strategies for implementation. Part II, presents an analysis of the situation regarding capacity building in ten priority areas in Africa, each followed by an action matrix indicating the policy measures required in each priority area, what individual African countries should do at the national level, complementary actions at the sub-regional and regional levels, and supplementary action by Africa's external partners in support of national actions.

Lignes Directrices pour l’élaboration de curricula de formations sur la gouvernance foncière en Afrique
Les Lignes Directrices pour l’élaboration de curricula de formations sur la gouvernance foncière en Afrique ont été élaborées par le Centre africain de politiques foncières (anciennement Land Policy Initiative) afin de «Renforcer les capacités humaines, financières et techniques adéquates pour soutenir l’élaboration et la mise en œuvre des politiques foncières» conformément à la Déclaration sur les problèmes et enjeux fonciers en Afrique de l’Union africaine (UA), ainsi que les décisions relatives à la gouvernance et à la gestion foncière sur le continent. Ces études ont ensuite été suivies de l’Évaluation des besoins en capacités, du Cadre de développement des capacités et de l’Évaluation des besoins et des lacunes du secteur dans les curricula de formations sur la gouvernance foncière en Afrique. Au cours de ces études, les principaux domaines de renforcement des capacités, les points d’entrée pour l’intervention et les acteurs qui faciliteront le changement souhaité dans la formation des professionnels du foncier ont été identifiés. Tout au long de ces études, l’ALPC a collaboré avec des acteurs clés du « secteur de la gouvernance foncière » en Afrique ; terme utilisé dans le présent document pour désigner toutes les institutions et tous les acteurs impliqués dans la gouvernance foncière et qui recrutent, emploient, collaborent avec ou ont besoin, d’une autre manière, des connaissances, des compétences et de l’expertise des professionnels du foncier qui ont bénéficié des universités et autres établissements d’enseignement supérieur.

West African experts adopt strong recommendations to improve food security
The seventeenth Intergovernmental Committee of Experts of the Sub-Regional Office for West Africa of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa was held on March 3-4, 2014, at the President Hotel in Yamoussoukro, presided over by the Prefect of the Region of Bélier representing the Minister of State, Minister of Planning and Development of Côte d’Ivoire. Presiding over the opening ceremony on behalf of the Ivorian Minister of State, Minister of Planning and Development, the Prefect of the Region of Bélier first extended a warm welcome to the experts before congratulating them on the choice of his country, Côte d’Ivoire by the UNECA to host such an important meeting. For André Akponon, the West African sub-region has an important agricultural potential with very diverse ecosystems which create complementarity between production basins, thus facilitating the regional integration of agricultural economies and trade. The report advises Member countries to apply the recommended models of industrialization for the agricultural sub-sectors on strategic food products that are the most consumed in the sub-region, with a view to ensuring sustainable food security. The Secretariat also informed the experts on new strategies developed by the UNECA in the areas of capacity strengthening, partnership and knowledge management before reviewing the activities carried out by the Office between March 2013 and February 2014. These activities consisted primarily of meetings, seminars, publications and advisory services.

Programme of Activities for the Implementation of the Preparatory Phase (1982-1984) of IDDA
Some of the major project areas in this sub sector are in the production of machine tools and metal-working equipment? Cutting tools; jigs, tools and fixtures for tool rooms; foundry and forging equipments. In the short-term, the raw material inputs could be obtained through long-term purchase agreements from African countries with iron and steel, such as Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria and Zimbabwe and ports from the rest or the world. More iron and steel projects; are proposed for the long-term period. In those cases where national markets are too small, sub regional and multi-country projects are proposed.

Les besoins de l'Afrique en matière de législation sur la protection de l'environnement
Dans la recherche de solutions aux problèmes de l'environnement, la législation de l'environnement est devenue l'un des instruments classiques de l'aménagement de l'environnement aussi bien dans les pays en développement que dans les pays industrialises. Dans la majorité des pays africains, le système juridique actuel, ainsi que la majorité des lois sont un héritage du régime colonial.

La science et la technologie au service des pauvres et du développement durable en Afrique
L'Afrique fait face à de graves problèmes dans le domaine de la sécurité alimentaire bien plus graves que dans n'importe quelle autre région du monde. Les deux-tiers des pays touchés par l'insécurité alimentaire sont des pays africains. Dans ces pays, la production vivrière par habitant est en recul depuis de longues années. La faiblesse du niveau technologique est un obstacle majeur à la réalisation de la sécurité alimentaire et du développement durable. La faiblesse de «l'apprentissage technologique», l'absence de politiques technologiques adéquates, l’incapacité de répondre pleinement aux défis de la mondialisation et de bien saisir les enjeux essentiels qui façonnent le monde contemporain sont autant d’éléments qui compliquent davantage la situation.

Sources of agricultural growth in Malawi : the case of smallholder maize production
This paper reviews the key determinants of agricultural growth in Malawi with a focus on maize production in the smallholder sub sector. The need for the study arose from the recognition that despite the government’s emphasis and large investments as well as donor support to the agricultural sector and various structural reforms undertaken in the recent years, the smallholder maize production has stagnated. This has led to declining per capital crop production. The study has thus analyzed both price and non-price factors that are hypothesized determinants of smallholder maize supply using econometric models and discussion of issues that approximate the realities of Malawi.

Statement by Mr. Abdoulie Janneh, UN under secretary general and executive secretary of ECA: fifth joint annual meetings of African ministers
Statement by Mr. Abdoulie Janneh, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Secretary of ECA at the Fifth Joint Annual Meetings of the AU Conference of Ministers of Economy and Finance and the ECA Conference of African Ministers of Finance, Planning and Economic Development. Mr. Janneh, on his remarks highlighted that, Unleashing Africa’s Potential as a Pole of Global Growth – could not have been placed on your agenda at a more appropriate time. Increasing faith and abiding belief that Africa is on the rise both by Africans themselves and by our partners as reflected in various research reports and positive stories in the media. Going forward, Africa must continue to harness its resources, with which it is deeply endowed, for growth and development. Africa must transform its agricultural sector if it is to make headway in unleashing its potential. Agriculture is the mainstay of most of our economies through its contribution to national income, employment and livelihoods. The encouraging figures on Africa’s market size, foreign exchange reserves, natural resource base, and flows of foreign direct investment are all aggregate figures and only confer an advantage in the context of a seamless African economy.

Food and agriculture (Yaounde MULPOC)
In view of the deteriorating food situation in Africa which lead to the Freetown Declaration of the FAO Regional Conference of Ministers of, Agriculture in 197S the Regional Food Plan (AFPLAM) was drawn up jointly by FAO and ECA and adopted by the FAO Regional Conference of Ministers of Agriculture in Arusha in 1970. The Arusha Conference recommended that action should be taken at two levels: (i) at the national level, the preparation and implementation of appropriate policies and projects for food self-sufficiency by Governments; and (ii) at the intergovernmental levels joint ventures for increased food production and intra-sub regional and regional trade.

État de la sécurité alimentaire en Afrique
Au sommet de l’Union africaine tenue à Malabo en juin 2014, les chefs d’État et de gouvernement africains se sont engagés à éradiquer la faim sur le continent dans la Déclaration de Malabo sur la croissance et la transformation accélérées de l’agriculture pour une prospérité partagée et de meilleures conditions de vie. Ils s’y engagent à éliminer la faim d’ici à l’an 2025 et à ramener les retards de croissance et l’insuffisance pondérale respectivement à 10 % et 5 %, en doublant au minimum les niveaux actuels de productivité agricole, en triplant les échanges intra-africains de produits agricoles et en réduisant les pertes après récolte.

The role of trade unions in stimulating and sustaining small-and medium-scale enterprises in Africa
The economic crisis is epitomised by the unabated abject poverty, impoverishment and persistent signs and illustration of under-development, indices such as a fall in per-capita income; deplorable health, education, sanitary and other social services increased external debt and debt-servicing; deteriorating purchasing power of workers and peasants incomes; deteriorating prices of commodities versus rising prices of imports from the developed countries; are just few manifestations of the Jiopelessness oi the ^ponomic situation of
African countries.

Climate change and human development
Although climate change can adversely impact, frustrate, deter, and reverse social and human development, it also holds the potential to foster and contribute positively. Climate change impacts, therefore, require improved governance, shared knowledge and good practices, an instilled culture of risk management and resilience and behavior change fostered towards better use of global goods and natural resources within a green economic strategy. There are a number of generic and specific issues related to climate change, and social and human development. The main thematic areas of interest are poverty, population, health and nutrition, education and employment, gender, and socially-vulnerable groups. The vulnerable groups encompass children, youth, older persons, persons with disabilities, and forcibly displaced persons (refugees, asylum seekers and internally-displaced persons (IDPs).

Progress report on the work of the ECA/FAO joint agriculture division since the ninth session of the commission
A report on the work of the Division for the period 1 March 1968 to 2 February 1969 was given in document E/CN.14/445. This report, therefore covers the period 2 February to 30 April 1969, and is submitted with particular reference to the programme of work of the Division for 1969/70 projected to 1973 and to resolution 201(IX) adopted by the ninth session of the Commission. It also indicates what the Division hopes, to carry out up to the end of 1969, Since most of the projects in the current programme, of work are continuations of projects, which were initiated in the last biennium, activities of the Division on regular programme projection and ad hoc tasks during this period have, in most cases, been an extension of work which was being carried out in the latter part of l968, and up to the time of the ninth session.

The development of food processing industries in West Africa
The general economic case for paying early attention to the food processing and distribution industry summarized as family expenditures on food tend to rise and absorb a large part of incomes through several levels of economic development; In West Africa the rate of growth of population and of urbanization reinforces this factor; The development of food processing and distribution industries would provide an additional outlet for employment as well a a stimulus for improvements in the quality and variety of agricultural food products and the development of food processing industries would offer an opportunity for making contributions towards correcting nutritional imbalance, especially in the urban work force and school going population.

The flow of resources to women in Africa in the context of the food and debt crisis
The basically agrarian nature of African economies finds reflection in the structure of exports9 which is dominated by a few commodities. This concentration .on. a handful of commodities makes African economies vulnerable to the vagaries of the world market9 a situation which is aggravated by a general trend of declining export volumes and prices. For this reason, a chronic current account deficit has become an enduring characteristic of the balance of payments of African countries. This inevitably leads to a decline in foreign exchange reserves. In 1984 for example, ECA estimated that these were only enough to finance two months of imports.

Rôle de la femme dans la production alimentaire dans la sous- région de l'Afrique de l'Ouest
La prise de conscience et la reconnaissance du rôle primordial de la femme dans la vie socio-économique, et plus particulièrement dans le secteur de l’alimentation et de l’agriculture sont parmi les plus grandes réalisations de la Décennie des Nations unies pour la Femme, instituée en 1975. Cette prise de conscience s’est notamment traduite par une situation de plus en plus grande accordée aux problèmes et besoins spécifiques des femmes.

L'économie verte dans le contexte du développement durable et de l'élimination de la pauvreté: quelles sont les implications pour l'Afrique?
Une économie verte peut être définie comme une économie qui améliore le bien-être humain et l'équité sociale, tout en réduisant considérablement les risques environnementaux et les pénuries écologiques. Dans une économie verte, la croissance des revenus et de l'emploi est tirée par les investissements publics et privés. qui réduisent les émissions de carbone et la pollution, améliorent l'efficacité énergétique et des ressources, et préviennent la perte de biodiversité et de services écosystémiques. Ces investissements doivent être catalysés et soutenus par des dépenses publiques ciblées, des réformes politiques et des changements de réglementation. Cette voie de développement devrait maintenir, améliorer et, si nécessaire, reconstruire le capital naturel en tant qu'actif économique essentiel et source d'avantages publics, en particulier pour les pauvres dont les moyens de subsistance et la sécurité dépendent fortement de la nature.

Ressources forestieres: Gestion et mobilisation des ressources naturelles au service du développement de l'Afrique
Le présent rapport annuel de la Commission économique pour l ‘Afrique (CEA) porte compte de la façon dont la Commission a réagi à ces tendances et événements dans le cadre de son mandat, qui consiste à promouvoir le développement social et économique de ses États membres dans un large éventail de domaines concrets. Enfin, et cela est capital, la prochaine édition du Forum pour le développement de l'Afrique, prévue en octobre 2012, sera consacrée à cet important thème. Étant donné le lien entre la gestion des ressources naturelles. Les pays africains n'exploitent pas cette richesse de façon optimale pour permettre la mise en valeur des pays. II existe pour ces pays de belles perspectives d'adopter la croissance verte et de faire des ressources forestières un pilier clef du développement socioéconomique. Mais cela passe par des mesures efficaces pour atténuer la déforestation et réorganiser les activités du secteur forestier.

Achievements and work programme in science and technology
The activities of this component aim at assisting member States in building an endogenous scientific and technological capability to address Africa's development; particularly as it relates to nexus issues, i.e. the interrelationships between population agriculture and environment. The activities support three critical transitions: from high to low population growth, from low to high productivity agriculture and from environmental degradation to environmental conservation and rehabilitation The activities strengthen cooperation between member States in tackling regional and sub regional issues in science and technology through a regional conference, publications on key issues of interest to member States, advocacy, awareness raising, networking and technical cooperation. The activities also strengthen international cooperation and inter-agency coordination, harmonization and liaison with institutions and organizations concerned with science and technology for the sustainable development of Africa.
