Explanation

a) What is the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD)?

The New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) is a strategic framework for the socio-economic and political development of Africa. It was established by the African Union in 2001. NEPAD addresses the continent's development challenges by promoting sustainable development, economic growth,and integration into the global economy. It focuses on key areas such as agriculture, infrastructure, education, health and governance, with the goal of reducing poverty, fostering socio-economic development and improving living standards across Africa.

(b) Four Objectives of the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) include:

1. Promotion of Economic Development: NEPAD aims to promote economic growth and development. It seeks to create an environment conducive to investment and trade, which in turn can lead to job creation, increased income levels and improved living standards for the African population. The partnership focuses on ensuring that development is sustainable in the long term. 

3. Promoting Good Governance and Democracy: NEPAD emphasises the importance of good governance, democracy and human rights. It aims to strengthen institutions, promote transparency and reduce corruption, thereby creating a stable and predictable environment that is essential for development and investment.

4. Upholding Democracy and Human Rights: NEPAD aims to promote the ideals of democracy, the rule of law and the protection of the fundamental human rights of Africans by ensuring that the African government upholds the standards set by the international community.

Others include:

5. Achieving peace, security and stability in Africa

6. Acceleration of the empowerment of women in Africa

7. To make Africa attractive to both domestic and foreign investors
