    Introduction:

    In 1995, the Bank of Central African States (BEAC) and the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO) decided to launch a capacity building program in macroeconomic and financial management with the backing of the African Capacity Building Foundation (ACBF).  In 2000, the Foundation approved a grant of US$1.65 million for three years to both banks in order to support a Regional Debt Management Training Program (RDMTP). 

     

    Project Description:

    The overall goal of RDMT wasto improve the macroeconomic and financial management of member countries of the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC) and the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) in order to create an environment for productive investment and economic growth conducive to the formulation and implementation of poverty reduction programs.

The recognition of ACBF as the African Union’s Specialized Agency for Capacity Development launches the beginning of a new era for capacity building by ACBF, which will require an appropriate level of political commitment and financial support from all stakeholders.

The remarkable achievements ACBF has registered over the past 26 years is not by accident in our opinion. They have come through hard work, dedication, commitment, purposeful leadership, support from the member countries as well as productive partnership building.
Mr. Lamin Momodou MANNEH, Director, UNDP Regional Service Centre for Africa
Goodall Gondwe

Africa needs ACBF as much, probably more now, than at the time it was created in 1991.

Ghana’s partnership with ACBF is a tremendous blessing for us and therefore the opportunity for Ghana to host the 26th ACBF Board of Governors Meeting is something that we treasure.
