Summary
In a bid to contribute to a deeper understanding in the Nordic countries of the dynamics of development cooperation in Africa, Nordiska Afrika-institutet convened a conference in Uppsala, Sweden, in October 1995 at which 40 aid administrators and researchers from Nordic as well as Sub-Saharan African countries participated. The participants reviewed the experiences of bilateral and multilateral assistance to Sub-Saharan Africa over the last two decades; explored the lessons learnt and raised a number of questions regarding what the new international framework would imply for the future of aid and development dialogue, such as the implications of conditionalities on the new and fragile democracies of Africa. This publication presents the papers and the discussions of the seminar, discussing the origins, achievements and problems as well as prospects for sustainable development cooperation in Africa. The seminar, as well as this publication, has been supported by the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs as a contribution to new policies on Swedish relations towards Africa.
