National Development Strategy (NDS)

February 4, 2014

The purpose of the NDS is to formulate a Vision and Mission Statement with appropriate strategies for socio-economic development for the next 25 years and provide a guide for the formulation of development plans and for the equitable allocation of resources. It is designed to strengthen the Government’s development planning and management capacities and anchor it firmly to a national consensus on the direction of future developments in the country.

Highlights

  • Swaziland has a comparative advantage in agricultural products because of its good soils, good climatic conditions, potential for more quality agricultural research and competitive wage rates.
  • The importance of human resource development as a key macro strategy stems from the fact that human resources are one of the primary resources Swaziland has.
