The U.S. Department of State requested that the CSIS Africa Program serve as executive secretariat for the Africa Policy Advisory Panel, for which Congress authorized monies in the 2003 omnibus spending bill. The program guided a review of U.S.-Africa policy in eight key areas: the implementation of President Bush's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief; options for strengthening Africa's private sector; post-conflict reconstruction in Sudan; past and projected revenues for oil production in key African oil-producing states; regional security and counter-terrorism; environmental protection; energy policy; and crisis diplomacy. The panel reported its findings in a report entitled Rising U.S. Stakes in Africa: Seven Proposals to Strengthen U.S.-Africa Policy to Secretary of State Colin Powell in mid-March 2004.
