Africa is facing many challenges during the current decade. The challenges are both external and internal. This demands continuous review of plans and programmes deemed necessary to address these challenges. To effectively redress the current situation in coherent manner, the AUC strategic plan has been updated and consolidated with the newly identified programmes/ projects, which reflects the African Continent’s ambitions. The AUC Strategic Plan for the period 2004-2007 defines the core business of the Commission within the African continent as mainly to achieve accelerated Continental Integration and to squarely set the Commission as a prime mover of Africa’s socio-economic development and integration endeavors.

A session focused on sharing experiences and learnings on mobilising key constituencies will be convened during the WSF meeting in Nairobi.
