| description |
During the 1998 Second Tokyo
International Conference on African Development (TICAD II),
a set of ambitious poverty reduction and human development
goals were established for the Africa region, drawing on and
reaffirming commitments made three years earlier at the
First TICAD conference and at the United Nation (UN) Social
Summit in Copenhagen. The Second TICAD Agenda for Action
dealt with three broad areas: social development; economic
development; and basic foundations for development (good
governance, conflict prevention and post-conflict
development). Nine time-bound social and economic
development goals form a key part of the agenda: 1)
Universal Primary Education (UPE) in Africa by 2015, with 80
percent completion by 2005; 2) halve the 1990 illiteracy
rate by 2005, with an emphasis on improving female literacy
rates; 3) gender equality in primary and secondary
enrollments by 2005; 4) halve the 1990 maternal mortality
rate by 2005, and by a further half by 2015; 5) reduce
infant and child mortality rates to one-third of their 1990
levels by 2015; 6) universal access to reproductive health
services by 2015; 7) halve the number of malnourished people
by 2015; 8) safe water and sanitation for 80 percent of the
population by 2005; and 9) reduce the number of women living
in poverty by two-thirds by 2015. |
