19 agosto, 2009At the sub regional meeting that took place in Durban, South Africa in June 2008, the IMF Region and affiliates gave detailed reports on progress and development in each country. Discussion followed on what the way forward should be in IMF work in these countries. Willingness to work towards sustainable unionism is key to how IMF engages affiliates in the region.
