Africa-Europe Tracker

Discover key developments in priority areas of Africa-Europe cooperation and progress on delivery of the commitments made at the 6th EU-AU Summit in February 2022. The AU-EU Tracker aims to provide up-to-date information and data, reflecting the latest developments within the Africa-Europe partnership, aggregating available information from trusted sources, providing expert analysis from international and local think tanks as well as AEF’s multistakeholder network operating across Africa, Europe and globally. We acknowledge significant data gaps which limit the scope of commitment tracking and granularity of analysis. We also acknowledge the publications that are already existing, which are a valuable source of information. The AEF does not wish to provide an exclusive view, rather, we wish to set up a platform for all stakeholders and concerned actors in the Africa-Europe dialogue to contribute to the monitoring of the implementation of Africa-Europe partnership. We invite all independent actors and agencies to join the AEF’s endeavor and provide regular contribution to the AU-EU Tracker. Please contact us through the link below to start our collaboration.

State of Africa-Europe

The first edition of the Africa-Europe Foundation Report on the State of Africa-Europe (2024) is a culmination of two years of work tracking commitments made at 6th European Union-African Union Summit held in Brussels in February 2022. The report aims to assess progress against commitments made by both regions - as expressed in the Final Declaration - be it in terms of finance, policy or impact, and to identify some potential avenues for better processes, as well as additional actions. Building on data provided by the AU and EU and, where available, from Member States, as well as non-state/non-institutional actors, it represents an independent analysis of the delivery of commitments designed as a resouce to complement the existing institutional monitoring processes implemented by the AU and EU. The Report also aggregates views and analysis from the AEF multistakeholder dialogue platforms, its Strategy and Expert Working Groups, as well as youth, focus groups and public polling on new challenges and opportunities that the Africa-Europe Partnership remains uniquely placed to address in a world increasingly challenged by interconnected crises.
