Report of the East African training course for building contractors

Abstract

The eighth session of the United nations Economic Commission for Africa adopted a resolution [157(VIII)] which, inter alia, endorsed the ECA work programme in housing, building and physical planning presented for the 1967-68 biennium. One project in the work programme was the organization of special training courses for building contractors. Under this authority, the ECA secretariat organized and directed in April-June 1968 a series of training courses for African building contractors in four East African countries.
