Session on
“India – Africa Development Partnership”6:00 pm to 7:00 pm: 25 April, 2013
WWF Auditorium, 172 – B, Lodhi Estate, New Delhi

India’s relations with the African continent goes way back in history and it is through common struggle against colonialism and apartheid that a more contemporary partnership of development cooperation took shape. Since the inception of India’s Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation Programme and its Indian Council for Cultural Relations Scholarship Programme in the 1960s, Africa has emerged as one of India’s most important development partners. During the past ten years, the India – Africa  partnership has significantly expanded in virtually every category.  Bilateral trade has expanded to touch 53 billion USD during 2010 -11.

The “Africa – India Framework Cooperation” is a unique initiative in the history of South-South cooperation, placing development cooperation within a much broader context of overall relations between India and Africa. It looks at development not merely in economic terms but as a process that is sustainable only if located within a larger political, social and intellectual environment. India-Africa development cooperation is conceived in terms of a unique three-tiered pattern, encompassing bilateral, regional and pan-African cooperation.

To discuss this unique model of cooperation, Aspen Institute India invites you to join a talk on  “India – Africa Development Partnership” by  Ambassador Shyam Saran, Chairman, National Security Advisory Board & Former Foreign Secretary of India.
The session will be chaired by Mr. T. N Ninan, Chairman, Business Standard Limited & Trustee, Aspen Institute India.
Participation is restricted and will be by prior registration only.
