| dc.description | The Fifth African Development Forum was held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from November 16-18, 2006. The Economic Commission for Africa organized the forum with its strategic regional partner, the Africa Union, and in collaboration with other stakeholders in African development. The fifth African development forum theme was " Youth and Leadership in the 21st Century".
The immediate objective of ADF-V was to fulfill the requirements of UNGA Resolution 60/2 of October 2005 by providing a platform for regional consultations and discussions on key issues affecting youth with the Member States, UN agencies, civil society as well as African youth, with the view to evaluating progress towards the objectives of the WPAY, notably, the development of holistic and integrated youth development policies in member states and the enhancement of synergies among stakeholders including UN system agencies for youth development in Africa.
The ultimate objective of ADF-V is to deepen strategies at the regional and national levels for translating the potential of youth as a development asset into practical benefits for Africa's democratic, gender-equal, peaceful, and rights-based development, in line with the objectives of the proposed African Union Youth Charter, NEPAD and internationally agreed development goals including MDGs. | en |
