SUBCHAPTER XXIII - UNITED STATES AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION Sec. 290h - Congressional findings From the U.S. Government Publishing Office, www.gpo.gov §290h. Congressional findings The Congress finds that— (1) social and economic development ultimately depends on the active participation of individuals within a society and on the enhancement of opportunities for those individuals; (2) the development of individuals and institutions in African countries can benefit by the provision of support for community-based self-help activities; (3) by enacting title IX of chapter 2 of part I of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 [22 U.S.C. 2218], and recent amendments to that Act, the Congress has sought to enable the poor to participate in the process of development; (4) the Inter-American Foundation, established by Congress in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1969 [22 U.S.C. 290f], to support the efforts of the people of Latin America and the Caribbean to solve their development problems, has demonstrated a successful approach to development; and (5) an African Development Foundation similar in structure to the Inter-American Foundation, but adapted to the specific needs of Africa, can complement current United States development programs in Africa.
