Summary: | Evidence-based knowledge and innovation are critical for national development in Africa if the continent is to sustain the momentum of its transformation agenda. South- South Cooperation (SSC) is a mechanism that can contribute to this objective.

This will help scale up and institutionalize the practice of learning for development effectiveness as a capacity development tool. |
