NEPAD (New Partnership for Africa's Development) was launched in 2001, a synthesis of two proposed development frameworks. It represents a vision for socio-economic development in Africa and aims to promote sustainable change for the better. In 2005 the first evaluation of the NEPAD programme took place to asses its progression. This resulting volume is a handbook first and foremost for African policymakers who will find in it recommendations and analysis for ways to improve the implementation of the NEPAD framework.
