The language factor in development goals
Although development goals are usually set as targets that must be achieved in a development process, experience with development goals in Africa has tended to underscore underperformance either in terms of a shortfall in the targets attained or in terms of inadequate pursuit of specific goals. To illustrate this syndrome, the African Union's New Partnership for African Development and the Millennium Development Goals will be used as a case study…

The use of the indigenous languages of West Africa in the formal school system owes its origin to the efforts of the early Christian missions. Since the number of available white missionaries who were native speakers of the colonial languages was few, and only a negligible number of native missionaries could be trained to teach in these languages, there was no alternative for the missions but to adopt a policy of initial literacy through the medi…
