Description

"The UN and Africa"

Often absent from the major headlines of the western media, African issues dominate a great deal of the UN's agenda in areas like peacekeeping, the fight against HIV/AIDS, and economic development. Africa's challenges remain daunting, to its governments and to the international community.

Just before the African Union Summit in Addis Ababa, in June 2004, World Chronicle invited the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, to talk about the pressing issues facing Africa today.
