the Pan-African Parliament (PAP), Economic, Social and Cultural Council
(ECOSOCC), STCs amongst others, to coordinate implementation,
monitoring and evaluation at the continental level;
• Leveraging the strengths of collaborators and other strategic partners, such
as the African Development Bank (AfDB), the UN Economic Commission
for Africa (UNECA), the African Capacity Building Foundation (ACBF), the
Association of African Public Services Commissions (AAPSC) amongst
others to assist the AU institutions in playing their roles effectively; and
• Organising an annual stakeholder platform to review the progress of
implementation of Agenda 2063 at the national, regional and continental
levels and submitting the outcome of these deliberations in the form of
Annual Agenda 2063 State of the Union Report to the Assembly of the
African Union.
73. We are resolutely moving towards continental unity: the speeding up of the
regional integration process is a critical success factor for shared prosperity
and peace. Political unity of Africa will be the culmination of the integration
process, including the free movement of people, the establishment of the
continental institutions, and full economic integration. By 2030, there shall be
consensus on the form of the continental government and institutions.
CRITICAL ENABLERS FOR AFRICA’S TRANSFORMATION
74. The determination, participation, self-reliance and solidarity of Africa’s peoples
and leadership are preconditions for success and we therefore recognize the
following as critical enablers of continental transformation:
a. The People’s ownership and mobilisation: The continuous mobilisation of the
African people and the diaspora in various formations, effective communication
and outreach, and sustained and inclusive social dialogue on Agenda 2063.
b. African resources to finance its development: Looking inwards to mobilise
African resources to finance and accelerate its transformation, integration,
peace, security, infrastructure, industrialization, democratic governance and
strengthen continental institutions.
c. Accountable leadership and responsive institutions: Build visionary and
accountable leadership, democratic and developmental governance and
institutions, through robust and transparent planning, implementation,
monitoring and evaluation mechanisms at all levels.
