dc.description.abstract | This research was undertaken to investigate the effectiveness of NEP AD in remodelling Africa's
development. It proposed to find out the effectiveness of NEP AD by analysing factors that could inhibit NEP AD
at country level to achieve its objectives. Kenya was taken as a case study and it was established that NEP ADKenya
Secretariat is small in size and it lacks capacity both in resources and personnel to steer forward the NEP
AD¬ Initiative programmes in the country. However NEP AD-Initiative programmes in Kenya are slowly taking o
ff and are helping Kenya score more points in social, political and economic fronts. The NEP AD-Kenya
Secretariat can do more in terms of creating awareness of thc initiative among the private sector and the civil
society to make the people part of the development agenda. This research set out to reveal the challenges and
inadequacies of Africa owned initiative for economic development. The research has collated literature and data to
inform scholars of regional integration on the pitfalls and strengths of individual countries and collective
responsibility in steering forward sustainable development. The continental economic development can be
achieved through NEP AD initiative by designing programmes that are acceptable across board for faster
economic take-off. N EP AD will be one of the pioneer programmes to tackle Africa' s underdevelopment i r all
African leaders support it and the development partners listen to Africa's wishes | en |
