| dc.description | At the opening of the High-level Round Table on infrastructure and development, held in the context of the NEPAD Heads of State and Government Orientation Committee, the Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa, Mr. Carlos Lopes, made a call for rapid development of regional infrastructure “to facilitate the movement of goods people, services, ideas, and innovations.”
Mr. Lopes told the high-level forum that ECA, in partnership with the African Union and the NEPAD Agency, will be working on a common regional framework to facilitate private sector financing of infrastructure projects in Africa. The project will entail mapping policies, laws, and regulations that affect private sector interests and a process of harmonization to address longstanding issues. These include project preparation and development, divergent laws, and local content. | en |
