The High level African Plenary on National Poverty Reduction Strategies (PRSs) and the Implementation of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) emphasized the need for Member States to develop PRSs that spur rapid broad-based growth, develop nationally integrated capacity building initiatives, secure improvements in aid effectiveness and develop strong ownership, leadership and accountability in PRS formulation and execution to ensure the achievement of the MDGs. The Plenary adopted the recommendations contained in the Outcome Statement and called on Member States, the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), the African Union (AU), The United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and other stakeholders to expeditiously follow-up on the recommended actions contained in the Outcome Statement. The main objective of the “African Plenary on National PRSs and the Implementation of the MDGs” was to assess the effectiveness of First Generation PRSs (FGPRSs) and come up with improved Poverty Reduction Strategies (PRSs) that will more effectively reduce poverty and achieve the MDGs.
