Confronting our Common Challenges
Africa and Europe have a unique opportunity to develop their relationship in new, strategic ways, through collaboration on common global challenges that delivers on the key objectives of the African Union (AU) and the European Union (EU).
The AU has, in its strategic 2063 Agenda, expressed its commitment to developing an African knowledge society based on research and innovation, and to tackle priorities such as biodiversity, climate resilience, and democracy and governance. The European Union is firmly committed to environmental sustainability and digital transitions, whilst both the AU and EU have agreed to focus jointly on strengthening public health.
