Progress report on fellowship and training administration

Abstract

At the first Conference of Ministers responsible for human resources planning, development and utilization held 5-7 October 1981, member- States were urged to step up their contributions in supporting the expanded training and fellowship programme materially and financially. In addition, an appeal was made to existing faculties and institutions in member States to communicate to EGA designating their training capabilities and fields ox fellowships that could be made available to nationals of other African countries. 3CA was again mandated to serve as coordinator of, and clearing house for information on training and facilities as well as to mobilize resources to support the programme. The Conference recommended however that member States strengthen their administrative machineries for the administration and co-ordination of fellowship programme activities.
