S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Representatives of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) visited Brazilian capital Bras\u00edlia last Friday (23) to learn about Brazilian social programmes. The objective is to analyse the possible partnerships between Brazil and the African countries, to improve the lives of the populations of both regions.<\/p>\n
The committee led by the regional director at the UNDP for Africa, Tegegnework Gettu, met with the minister of Social Development and Hunger Alleviation, Tereza Campello, and with the executive secretary at the ministry, R\u00f4mulo Paes de Sousa. The meeting included other members of the federal government.<\/p>\n
"Brazil has great contribution to make in areas like transfer of income and hunger alleviation, like the strengthening of family farming. But we also have much to learn. The exchange of experience with the countries of Africa was a strategic agenda of the Lula government and continues in the Dilma Rousseff government," said the minister, in a press statement.<\/p>\n
The executive secretary at the ministry presented to the UNDP members the programs coordinated by his ministry. According to Sousa, "for the ministry to supply the international demand the establishment of partnerships is necessary."<\/p>\n
Still according to the press statement, Tegegnework Gettu said that the continent aims to expand trade, economic and political relations with Brazil. He mentioned the Family Purse as an internationally successful case in conditioned income, also in programs for social protection and hunger alleviation.<\/p>\n
