New African policy training institution to open

The Joint Africa Institute (JAI), a new institution providing policy-related training to African government officials, is being established by the African Development Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Based in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, but making extensive use of information technology for distance learning, the JAI will offer courses in areas such as macroeconomic management, poverty alleviation, gender, governance and the environment. The JAI is expected to open in the second half of 1999.
