Steering committee
Functions of the Steering Committee
The SC has an advisory role, with meetings held annually and additional meetings or discussions via e-mail or video/phone calls as necessary. The Secretariat, headed by the ATI Director, ensures a regular flow of information throughout the year and, if necessary, consults informally with the SC.
The SC’s function is to provide strategic guidance and contribute to the setting of training priorities, including through the endorsement of an indicative annual work plan. The SC reviews progress under the work plan, as well as performance under the longer-term program. The SC is also a forum for coordinating training on macroeconomic and financial analysis and policy design, including fiscal, monetary and financial sector policies, and statistics. To ensure efficient coordination, the Secretariat shares with SC members training plans and reports and feedback from participants. The SC may also be invited to provide strategic input into reviews of the curriculum offered under the trust fund, to ensure its alignment with existing and newly arising training needs in beneficiary countries.
Composition of the Steering Committee
Chair rotates annually among partners and AFRITAC Chairs.
