Hunger to Harvest: Decade of Support for Sub-Saharan Africa Resolution
Summary
Urges the President to: (1) set forth five-year and ten-year strategies to achieve a reversal of current levels of hunger and poverty in sub-Saharan Africa, including a commitment to contribute an appropriate U.S. share of increased bilateral and multilateral poverty-focused resources for sub-Saharan Africa, with an emphasis on health (including HIV-AIDS prevention and treatment), education, agriculture, private sector and free market development, democratic institutions and the rule of law, micro-finance development, and debt relief; and (2) work with the heads of other donor countries and sub-Saharan African countries and with private and voluntary organizations and other civic organizations to implement such strategies. Calls for: (1) Congress to undertake a multi-year commitment to provide the resources to implement those strategies; and (2) the Administrator of the United States Agency for International Development to report on such implementation.
