MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD SECRETARY

Dear Friends

On behalf of African Centre for Trade and Development (ACTADE), I have the pleasure of welcoming you to our website.

ACTADE recognizes the role of Trade and sustainable development as the sure way of eliminating poverty and helping poor economies achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Trade, Environment and Health are interlinked and therefore fighting poverty requires approaches that address the causes of poverty and underdevelopment. We shall continue supporting the government towards achieving economic development and poverty reduction through capacity building for policy makers and technocrats, policy research, information dissemination and advice.

 I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our partners who have supported our activities and have helped us achieve our mandate through financial, technical, informational and moral support.

Lastly, I wish to thank the ACTADE Team (Staff, Associates and Volunteers) for the commitment and drive which has become the foundation for efficiency and effectiveness.
I look forward to a closer working relationship with you all in the coming years. 

Thank you. Merci

Elly R.Twineyo
Executive Director
