**Analysis**
The text appears to be a report on the implementation of a program related to transportation and communication in Africa, specifically the Trans-African Communications Decade. The report mentions conferences, meetings, and activities related to the program, as well as the evaluation of the first phase and the goals for the second phase. The focus on transportation and communication infrastructure and services suggests that the category related to transport and communication is the most fitting.
