Keynote address to the African Development Bank Symposium by K. Y. Amoako Executive Secretary Economic Commission for Africa. Mr. Amoako, on his remarks out lined that, Through NEPAD, African leaders have affirmed that they have a key role in ensuring capable and effective states. A capable state is one in which peace and security is assured for all citizens. It is a state in which the public service, the legislature, the judiciary and statutory bodies are empowered to provide an enabling environment for the private sector and civil society. These institutions of governance, coupled with visionary political leadership, are critical to economic sustainability and poverty reduction. To make this vision a reality, we need to put in place concrete mechanisms for peer reviews as an essential step towards self-monitoring on the continent. We at ECA have been closely involved in providing technical support to NEPAD in conceptualizing the African Peer Review process. The new partnerships based on mutual accountability can work only if we have mechanisms for an enhanced interface at different levels between Africa and its partners to ensure effective monitoring of adherence to agreed commitments.
