The English-speaking states of Gambia, Ghana, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone, along with the French-speaking state of Guinea, have formed the West African Monetary Zone (WAMZ) and aim to introduce a common currency, the Eco, on 1 January 2015, with the ultimate goal of uniting the West African Economic and Monetary Union and the WAMZ to form a single West African monetary zone.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or proposals:

    It is a time when one’s spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    One theme links together these new proposals for family policy—the idea that the family is exceedingly durable. Changes in structure and function and individual roles are not to be confused with the collapse of the family. Families remain more important in the lives of children than other institutions. Family ties are stronger and more vital than many of us imagine in the perennial atmosphere of crisis surrounding the subject.
    Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
