Proposed programme plan for 2025 and programme performance for 2023: summary, and proposed programme budget for 2025

Abstract

Africa has continued to suffer from recurrent multipronged crises and conflicts, which have amplified its vulnerability to global and regional shocks and are threatening the fulfilment of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want, of the African Union. Rescuing both agendas will require a creative, integrated and time-bound intervention framework embedded with innovative solutions. The proposed programme plan for 2025 is intended to help members of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), regional economic communities and other stakeholders to make progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and the realization of the second 10-year implementation plan of Agenda 2063, which was launched at the thirty-seventh ordinary session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the African Union, by providing tailor-made support to equip them with adequate policies, frameworks, training and capacity development. Principles of joint planning and delivery among and between subprograms will continue to guide ECA interventions, with a view to maximizing human and financial resources and heightening impacts and positive changes at all levels.
