      "summary": "The New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD), described by its proponents as a\nmulti-sector, sustainable development policy framework, seeks to reduce poverty, increase economic\ngrowth, and improve socio-economic development prospects across Africa. Major NEPAD aims are\nto attract greater investment and development aid to Africa, reduce the continent's debt levels, and\nbroaden global market access for African exports. NEPAD emphasizes increased democratization,\npolitical accountability, and transparency in governance in African states as primary means of\nachieving its goals. NEPAD is a key policy vehicle of the African Union (AU), which succeeded the\nOrganization of African Unity (OAU) in July 2002; see  CRS Report RS21332 ,  The African\nUnion .\n H.Res. 155 , introduced in March 2003, urges U.S. and international support for\nNEPAD. This report will be updated as events warrant.",
