Policy

Bringing African development to the forefront cannot be embarked on by a single organization. It takes a multitude of organizations, stakeholders and international frameworks working collaboratively to ensure African development goals will be achieved.

Therefore, the United Nations University (UNU) contributes actively to frameworks such as the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) , Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD) , as well as European Union projects focused on Africa.
