On Saturday, in Accra, Ghana, the Chairman of the Presidential Council, Mohamed al-Menfi, in his capacity as a member of the Steering Committee of Heads of State and Government of the African Union Development Agency (NEPAD), met with the Executive Director of the NEPAD Agency, Nardos Bekele-Thomas. They reviewed the outcomes of her visit to Libya last April, where she met with the President and several Libyan officials to discuss ways to enhance cooperation between the agency and Libya.
Bekele-Thomas presented a proposal for a strategic partnership project between Libya and NEPAD, which includes providing technical support and advice for sectors related to infrastructure, education, food security, economy, and small and medium enterprises.
It is noteworthy that the agency is the development arm of the African Union, which undertakes the implementation of several developmental projects and programs in African Union member states, working to improve the quality of education, training, and the adoption of modern technologies.
