The institutions at work

Abstract

At the present stage of African development when nearly all African countries are stricken with drought and hunger and battling with the present economic crisis, the African multinational institutions have a special role to play in the economic survival and development of Africa. And it is at such a time that they must more than ever before, demonstrate their usefulness. This second Bulletin entitled "The Institutions at Work" therefore comes at an opportune time. Whilst the activities of a few of the institutions like the African Development Bank are better known and well appreciated, the second Bulletin will also introduce to its readers the worthwhile activities being undertaken by many of the other institutions.
