<p class=MsoNormal>Dear Colleagues and Friends,<o:p></o:p></p>

Policy Formulation, Implementation and Monitoring&#8217; implemented through the
State Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs (CEMA). The EMPCD project was
developed to make a sound contribution to achieving the United Nations
Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) Outcome 1 &#8220;Economic growth is more
equitable, inclusive and sustainable&#8221; and outcome 1 in the One Plan 2006-2010:
