GDF's
policy dialogue on industrial development in Ethiopia is based on 3
components.
1. Direct dialogues with Prime Minister, H.E. Mr. Meles Zenawi
2. Meetings and discussions with senior policy makers such as Senior
Economic Advisor to the Prime Minister,
the Ministers and the State Ministers of the relevant
ministries (High Level Forum)
3. Meetings, discussions, and collaborative work with policy makers and
practitioners in charge
In addition, various types of discussion meetings seminars are
organized, involving the business sector, universities, research
institutions, and other donors which have shown interest in our
activities.
The Ethiopian Government is keen to benefiting from the past experiences
of East Asian industrial development, not only the content, but also
"specific" and "action oriented" formulation of policies and its
organizational arrangements.
