Introduction:
Tanzania Global Development Learning Centre (TGDLC) is a capacity building sub-component under the President’s Office Public Service Management and a member of the Global Development Learning Network (GDLN). At its 41st Regular Meeting, in September 2009, the ACBF Executive Board approved a Grant of USD 500,000 in support to the Tanzania Knowledge Network for Research and Policy Development (TZ CLK NET). The network was hosted by the Tanzania Global Development Learning Centre (TGDLC), located in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

Project Description:
In addition to peer learning and information/knowledge sharing, the overall goal of TZ-CLK-NET was to promote broad based involvement and participation in national debates on key issues of national concern, including the formulation, implementation, and review of development policies and programs, via a consultative process.

ACBF has been granted the status of a specialized agency because of the potential to transform Africa through capacity development.

H.E. Thomas Kwesi Quartey, Deputy Chairperson, AU Commission

The recognition of ACBF as the African Union’s Specialized Agency for Capacity Development launches the beginning of a new era for capacity building by ACBF, which will require an appropriate level of political commitment and financial support from all stakeholders.

H.E. Erastus Mwencha, Chair, ACBF Executive Board

The remarkable achievements ACBF has registered over the past 26 years is not by accident in our opinion. They have come through hard work, dedication, commitment, purposeful leadership, support from the member countries as well as productive partnership building.

Mr. Lamin Momodou MANNEH, Director, UNDP Regional Service Centre for Africa

Africa needs ACBF as much, probably more now, than at the time it was created in 1991.

Hon. Goodall Gondwe, former Chair of the ACBF Board of Governors and Minister of Finance – Malawi

Ghana’s partnership with ACBF is a tremendous blessing for us and therefore the opportunity for Ghana to host the 26th ACBF Board of Governors Meeting is something that we treasure.

Hon Ken Ofori Atta, Chair of the ACBF Board of Governors and Minister of Finance - Ghana
