The 10th EDF Country Strategy Paper provides a framework for EC assistance programmes under the Cotonou Partnership Agreement for the years <year of signature> to 2013. The framework is based on EU/ACP cooperation objectives, such as poverty reduction, sustainable development and the gradual integration of ACP countries into the world economy. It also derives from Zambia’s policy agenda (5th National Development Plan 2006-2010, FNDP), an assessment of the country situation, and the activities of other major cooperating partners in Zambia (Joint Assistance Strategy Zambia, JASZ).
