"The tradition of World Population Conferences...has witnessed
an expanding treatment of population and development interrelations....
The twenty years (1974-1994) during which African countries
participated at three conferences along [with] other world nations have
witnessed their crystallisation of and marked commitment to population
and development issues at regional, national and sub-national levels.
It is expected that these countries are well poised for embracing the
UNFPA's three thematic areas to be applied through technical support
tools as well as operational tools in the agency's African strategy for
the rest of this century and beyond."
