218 Yükselen Afrika ve Türkiye / Rising Africa and TurkeyCommission’s poverty reduction initiatives. In order realistically maximizethe impact of aid on development in Africa; these efforts require policy coherencein reforms of trade regimes. Farm production in many economies hasbeen affected by export subsidies, tariff peaks and escalation.Ending the poverty trap in Africa will require a comprehensive strategyfor public investment and improved governance. Special consideration has tobe given to issues of gender equality and social and economic status ofwomen. Women in Africa continue to carry a triple burden of production offood, processing and preservation using traditional methods (most times withlittle or no access to technology that minimizes drudgery). They are alsoresponsible for family’s welfare including taking care of the sick and with theadvent of AIDS in households and communities, women’s roles in care-givinghas become central and indispensable. As Africa is left behind the developmentpendulum, technology and innovation, when introduced continue toexclude women and the role of African women to fetch fuel-wood, portablewater for the family and many other errands that require drudgery make thewomen of Africa the central locus of its development. Support in developmentassistance and aid to the continent should and must be directed at policies thatare gender equal and women inclusive if the development and peace dividendis make any mark for Africa’s future developmentAccording to the UNDP Development Effectiveness Report, 2003, moreaid ODA goes to policy and administrative management than to education,health, population, water and sanitation combined. Prospects for meeting theMillenium Development Goals depend not just on more aid, but more oneffective aid as well. It also advocates for ODA that works towards enhancingdevelopment effectiveness only when it recognizes the obstacles to development-onlywhen it is better targeted and used to address the gaps in a country’scapacity, ownership and policy environment.Aid governance continues to present critical management challenges onthe part of donors as well as the recipient countries. It also exhibits duality ofperceptions. Needless to say the issue of improving ownership of aid needs tobe enhanced. However, this has to be accompanied by improved coordinationof aid, targeting of aid to policies and programmes that have the potential todeal with income and human poverty, as well as to improve the livelihoods andincomes of the people in recipient countries. In order to enhance better aidgovernance, the aid package needs to respond to the needs, and be flexibleenough to allow both parties to cater for the evolving demands and emergingneeds that the aid policies are designed to meet. Various country led initiativesfor aid coordination are now becoming the rule rather than the exception. For
