RESOLUTION ON THE WORLD CONFERENCE ON
TRADE AND DEVELOPMENT
The Assembly of Heads of State and Government meeting in Addis Ababa Ethiopia,
from 5 to 9 November1966,
Considering the increasing importance of problems of economic development,
Considering that one of the essential requirements for the development of Third World
countries consists in seeking appropriate remedies for the deterioration of the terms of trade,
Considering that the next World Conference on Trade and Development will
necessarily have to consider this basic problem,
Considering that if Third World countries wish to obtain satisfactory results they will
have to present a united front at the Conference,
In view of the invitation sent by the Algerian Government to all Third World countries
to meet at Algiers for the purpose of harmonizing their standpoints,
Recommends to all Member States of the OAU that they should reply favourably to the
invitation of the Algerian Government and should be represented at this important gathering.
