Promoting Africa’s growth and economic development by championing citizen inclusion and increased cooperation and integration of African states.
Agenda 2063 is the blueprint and master plan for transforming Africa into the global powerhouse of the future. It is the strategic framework for delivering on Africa’s goal for inclusive and sustainable development and is a concrete manifestation of the pan-African drive for unity, self-determination, freedom, progress and collective prosperity pursued under Pan-Africanism and African Renaissance.
H.E. Mr. Paul Kagame, President of the Republic of Rwanda, was appointed to lead the AU institutional reforms process. He appointed a pan-African committee of experts to review and submit proposals for a system of governance for the AU that would ensure the organisation was better placed to address the challenges facing the continent with the aim of implementing programmes that have the highest impact on Africa’s growth and development so as to deliver on the vision of Agenda 2063.
The AU offers exciting opportunities to get involved in determining continental policies and implementing development programmes that impact the lives of African citizens everywhere. Find out more by visiting the links on right.

A good evening to you. I am very pleased to join you today to launch the African Union’s revitalised Peace Fund. Thank you for making the time to be here, especially the Heads of State and Government here present.
Promoting peace and security is one of the core functions of our Union. However, up to this point, we have lacked a credible mechanism to fund our priority operations in this domain. We depended too extensively on external resources.
Excellencies, we have a very substantial agenda of reports and proposals to consider today. So I only wish to make a few observations before the Chairperson of the Commission presents his update.
The first is to thank you very sincerely for making the time to participate in this Extraordinary Summit, the second one this year. It is a lot to ask. But we are getting the results we need and that would absolutely not be possible without sustained engagement at the highest level.
Good morning. I am very happy to be here with you. I wish to thank the African Union Commission and the Economic Commission for Africa for organising this important session. Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations, thank you for being here, having come all this way for this meeting.
Good morning. Let me begin by thanking His Excellency, Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, along with the Government and people of Ethiopia for the warm hospitality and for serving once again as our host.
We also note that this is the Prime Minister’s first time attending a summit like this one. Your Excellency, congratulations and welcome.
