TUNIS, Tunisia, November 13, 2009/African Press Organization (APO)/ — The high-level forum on public procurement reforms in Africa will be hosted by the African Development Bank (AfDB) Group in Tunis from 16-17 November 2009. The forum will be an opportunity for African governments (and the IFIs) to discuss and agree on the process that will emphasize African priorities regarding the use of procurement systems in African countries as a mandatory means for medium- and long-term development policy. To facilitate the use of national procurement systems and conform to the AAA requirement, the AfDB is finalizing a new strategy in this regard.
