Report of the review mission : African Training and Research Centre for Women

Abstract

Since its establishment in 1975 the staff of the African Training and Research Centre for Women have realized the need to build into its programme provision for periodic evaluation to provide guidance for its directions priorities and strategies. It has therefore been the regular practice to include funding for such evaluation within its overall requests to donor agencies. Funds for the present Review Mission were provided by USAID. At the Regional Conference on the Implementation of National, Regional and World Plans of Action for the Integration of Women in Development, Nouakchott, Mauritania in September/October, 1977, the meeting of donor agencies to ATRCW proposed that ECA should initiate plans for a systematic review and assessment of the Centre As work, progress and projected plans in the early part of 1978.
