Africa

The
African Union Commission as a publicly financed institution with
a mandate entrusted to it by 53 Member States. Herewith it has a
basic obligation towards all Africa’s people, as well as various
stakeholders and partners, to keep them informed regarding its
work. It is imperative, therefore, that the Commission should,
partner, inform and communicate what it does, not only to foster
accessibility and transparency, but also to consistently promote
the AU's achievements regularly and strategically to various
stakeholders through diverse channels. In sequel, recognizing
that Youth led and Managed, including Youth Serving NGOs and
Networks in Africa are invaluable and infallible to advancing
this move.
This Project to Map the work and scope of Civil Society Youth
Groups in Africa is an activity of the AUC/HRST Division of
Human Resources, Science and Technology
(www.africa-union.org/youth.htm) in partnership with the United
Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) Liaison office to the ECA, RECs
and AUC in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. This partnership is benefiting
from voluntary technical assistance of a youth volunteer in
colaboration with the African Youth Network on Population and
Development (AfriYAN)
Participation in this survey is voluntary as well as important
to consolidate the interface of the AU Commission in its work to
promote the African Youth Charter ratification and the Decade of
Youth Plan of Action Implementation towards its biennial
periodic review.
By accepting to participate, you and your organization will
improve data available to the AUC to improve the Advocacy and
Policy environment on Youth participation and development in
Africa and thereby strengthen Government and Civil Society
Partnerships at all levels.
