Abstract:
According to Osuntokun (2002), “the survival of man on this terrestrial habitat would depend on how rapidly he changes his activities in relation to nature”. In the light of making changes the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) was initiated for coordinated development of African state; on this basis, this study examined the relevance of NEPAD in relation with African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) to Africa’s development and poverty reduction. In this study, development initiative before the introduction of NEPAD was examined to identify the need for the new face and the place of civil society, public-private partnership association in Africa. Against this backdrop, NEPAD was appraised, using Ghana’s model of application. In achieving this, the study adopted a descriptive method of analysis relying on secondary sources of data gathering. In conclusion, a balanced framework of inclusive partnership cooperation between the public, private and civil society is recommended for African development.
