The principal objective of AARDO has been
the promotion of understanding among member countries for better
appreciation of each others' problems. It has always been AARDO's
endeavour to facilitate joint efforts to restructure rural economy and
revitalise social life in Afro-Asian countries. To realise these
objectives, AARDO has been implementing a number of concerted programmes
on triennial basis.
The technical programmes covering the triennium 2006-2008 are based
on the needs of the member countries. While formulating these
programmes, views of the member countries are invited and subsequently
discussed by the Technical Committee. The views of the Technical
Committee are thereafter submitted to the Executive Committee/AARDO
Conference for final approval. In addition, the recommendations of
various workshops and seminars are also taken into consideration before
finalising the technical programmes. The technical work programmes to be
implemented from January 2006 for the new triennium 2006-2008 have
already been approved by the 15th General Session of the AARDO
Conference held in Damascus, Syria on 15-17 September 2005.
During the triennium 2006-2008, all out efforts would be made to
consolidate the existing activities of AARDO, namely, training
programmes, workshops, seminars, deputation of experts, development pilot projects
and
dissemination of information and, at the same time, initiate new
programmes such as new training courses, regional level workshops/seminars and
study visits, action research studies, meeting of heads of training
institutes and regional representatives to discuss and review technical
programmes, etc. AARDO is hopeful in securing cooperation
of member countries as well as international and regional organisations and donor agencies in
implementing programmes of the new triennium. The technical activities,
broadly classified into the following parts, are as follow :
