Aug. 1998 to 2007 9.3.1. The Panafrican Institute for Development (PAID) (1964) is a pan- African NGO. It provide training and capacity building activities to grass root, middle and higher managers, technical specialists, senior staff and to decision makers

in the public and private sectors, to promote economic development and social pr ogress in African countries. It is based in Douala, Cameroun and operates throug h its general secretariat and four regional institutions for English (2) and Fre nch (2) speaking countries. I was elected Chairman of the Board in August, 1998 9.3.2. Fromthe onset, the major tasks carried out were to prevent the collapse o f the institution, followingan unexpected, immediateand brutal termination of al l external financial support PAID was receiving from three bilateral donors (Can ada, The Netherlands and Switzerland) following a very negative but factual oper ations and financial audit whose results were made public just after my election as Chairman of the Board. The donors cancelled their support to all programs in cluding programs already approved, in progress or to be undertaken; some negated to refund expenditures they had already authorized and for which the institutio n had taken bank loans. Suddenly, PAID became paralyzed, salaries, social benefi ts and support services could not be paid any more. 9.3.3. At my request, the corrective measures adopted by the Board and which I i mplemented to prevent this collapse fell into the following categories: (i) Immediate dismissal of the institution's regular external and internal audit ors who, for years going, had failed to identify and to expose the gross shortco mings and misconducts detailed in the special auditors' report; (ii) Sanctioning including immediate dismissal,termination of any staff involved in proven gross financial misconduct; (iii) Total or partial retaining by PAID of any financial benefits dueby the ins titutionto any staff sanctioned for proven gross financial misconduct, in compen sation of the amount due by the given staff; (iv) Complete restructuring of the administrative structure of the institution a t the central and regional levels to reduce administrative costs including reduc tion of positions, elimination of some of the social benefits of top levels mana gers, senior and junior staff; (v) Restructuring and rationalization of the research, training and capacity bui lding activities of the institution, to make them more responsive to the needs a nd preoccupations of the major actors of social and economic development in coun tries and regions serviced by the institution and, notably to members and leader s of grass roots organizations; small and medium scale private rural and urban e ntrepreneurs, and to middle level, senior technical staff and decision makers an d to make them more attractive for material and financial support by these autho rities; (vi) Introduction and implementation of formal procedures for the preparation an d adoption of annual programs of activities and budgets and for reporting on the ir implementation; for mandatory external audit of annual financial accounts and of policies and procedure for personnel and financial management; (vii) Seek to mobilize greater and closer cooperation with the local, national a nd regional authorities to contribute the largest share of material and financia l support to carry out PAID activities at the central and regional levels. 9.3.4. The administrative and operational restructuring of PAID through the impl ementation of the measures outlined above and in an environment of a quasi-finan cial starvation met a lot of resistance and opposition from a large section of t he staff and from the civil service departments of some of the countries headqua rtering PAID institutions because the NGO had linked itself, in matters related to social benefits accruing to staff, to the same structure of benefits as those accruing to civil servants in these countries. In spite of these difficulties, the new orientations and the diversification of PAID training and capacity build ing attracted new clients particularly from grass roots associations of producer s/ distributors, from private sector companies and from civil servants countries emerging from conflicts (DR Congo, Rwanda), from oil producing countries (Niger ia, Gabon Chad) and from the public and private sectors of such countries as Bur kina Faso and Cameroon. While the activities of the institution declined signifi

cantly, because of the financial squeeze imposed by the withdrawal of its tradit ional donors, they started recovering gradually in three out of the four regiona l institutions, as a result of the implementation of the administrative and oper ational restructuring in decided by the Board. By 2003/2004, several training an d capacity building activities were running normally in these regional instituti ons, financed through local organizations, countries and domestic institutions. In 2007, Cameroonian police force invaded and seized the headquarter of PAID in Douala and made it impossible for the elected officials to continue to function. 9.4.
