The African Union Commission (AUC), the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), and the African Development Bank will jointly host a webinar to launch the second Africa Regional Integration Index (ARII 2019) on Friday, 22 May 2020.

The Africa Regional Integration Index assesses the regional integration status and efforts of member states of the eight Regional Economic Communities recognised by the African Union.
Regional integration holds tremendous promise for Africa and the ARII’s role is to provide benchmarking and monitoring data that policymakers can use to realise that promise.
The webinar also presents an opportunity to discuss the key findings and recommendations of the report.
