The second meeting of the Working Party of the IMF/World Bank Governors was held in Berlin (West) from 21 to 22 September 1988. During the various discussions concerning the issues relating to the World Bank, technical support and advisory services was given in the following specific areas; (a) the need for African
governors to take note of the United Nations Programme of Action
on African Economic' Recovery- ahd: Development- (UN-PAAERD)
especially on the setting of priorities for Africa. To this
end it was essential that African governors in the World Bank
should insist on agriculture as the highest priority to be
supported by transport and communications,industry, trade and
finance, human resources development and the control of drought
and desertification; (b)that despite the fact that many African
countries were implementing structural adjustment programmes
of the World Bank, the resources were inadequate to finance
such programmes and (c) that the structural adjustment lending
by the World Bank should take into account the political and
social cost of adjustment.
