The Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) continues to successfully support African countries to improve the socio-economic well-being of the people, an end-of-year Accountability and Programme Performance Review Meeting (APPRM) of the commission has revealed.
The APPRM is an ECA platform that fosters accountability and good governance by evaluating performance and identifying areas for improvement. The 2024 end-of-year APPRM, held in Addis Ababa from December 2nd to 6th, reviewed the year’s performance, highlighted key achievements and discussed challenges. The theme was “Enhancing Performance for Results: Lessons from Annual Reporting for Better Planning.”
The ECA supports African governments to enhance their socio-economic conditions by assisting in the development and execution of various initiatives through technical assistance, research for policymaking, and skill development. The Commission encourages partnerships between governments, businesses, and communities, tracks progress, identifies areas needing support, raises awareness, and promotes citizen engagement. The current focus is on supporting Agenda 2030 and Agenda 2063.
