A sustainable business partner now, in the future and beyond. African Union Pavilion at EXPO 2020 in Dubai, UAE.
Africa is open and ready for business. Africa is the cradle of human evolution and the essence of innovation. It is advancing towards realising its continental blueprint and invites collaborators to be part of this new narrative.
The Organization of African Unity (OAU) was formed in 1963 and advocated for African unity and solidarity, and fought for independence from colonialism and an end to apartheid. It was re-launched as African Union (AU) in 2002 to spearhead Africa’s Development and Integration and is comprised of 55 countries. Its Agenda 2063, Africa’s Development Blueprint, is a 50 year plan that was launched in 2013. The AU has representational offices in key cities around the world.
