including gender, racial and other forms of discrimination will be ended. 23. The political unity of Africa will be the culmination of the integration process, which includes the free movement of people and the establishment of continental institutions, leading to full economic integration. By 2030, there shall be consensus on the form of the continental government and institutions. 24. Africa shall be a continent where the free movement of people, capital, goods and services will result in significant increases in trade and investments amongst African countries rising to unprecedented levels, and in the strengthening of Africa’s place in global trade. 25. By 2063, the necessary infrastructure will be in place to support Africa’s accelerated integration and growth, technological transformation, trade and development. This will include high-speed railway networks, roads, shipping lines, sea and air transport, as well as well-developed ICT and the digital economy. A Pan-African High Speed Train Network will connect all the major cities/capitals of the continent, with adjacent highways and pipelines for gas, oil, water, as well as ICT Broadband cables and other infrastructure. This will be a catalyst for manufacturing, skills development, technology, research and development, integration and intra-African trade, investments and tourism. 26. The world-class infrastructure, accompanied by trade facilitation, will see intraAfrican trade growing from less than 12% in 2013 to approaching 50% by 2045. Africa’s share of global trade shall rise from 2% to 12%. This will in turn spur the growth of Pan-African companies of global reach in all sectors. ASPIRATION 3. An Africa of good governance, democracy, respect for human rights, justice and the rule of law 27. Africa shall have a universal culture of good governance, democratic values, gender equality, respect for human rights, justice and the rule of law. 28. We aspire that by 2063, Africa will: • Be a continent where democratic values, culture, practices, universal principles of human rights, gender equality, justice and the rule of law are entrenched; and • Have capable institutions and transformative leadership in place at all levels. 29. The continent’s population will enjoy affordable and timely access to independent courts and judiciary that deliver justice without fear or favour. 5
