analysis: This text appears to be focused on the empowerment of women in Africa, particularly in the context of the United Nations Decade for Women. It mentions the need for African governments to make sacrifices to allow for high-level representation at the Nairobi Conference and for African women to adopt a united stand to ensure their interests are represented. The text also mentions the Arusha Strategies, which likely relate to the needs and decisions of African women. Given the focus on women's empowerment and the African context, it is likely that the text is related to issues of social and economic development.
