Mission and Strategic Objectives

Our primary mission is to promote governance excellence as a key driver of economic transformation and sustainable development across Africa. We are committed to equipping African governments, institutions, and stakeholders with the knowledge, tools, and partnerships necessary to establish transparent, accountable, and inclusive governance systems that foster socio-economic growth and improve living standards for all.

Upholding principles of excellence, transparency, and intellectual rigor, we believe that open-minded inquiry and innovative ideas are essential for Africa's pursuit of a prosperous, peaceful, and influential future.

Aligned with the vision of the African Union's Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want, there are significant opportunities for economic transformation as the continent seeks to leverage its vast resources. The Africa Governance Centre aims to lead evidence-based policy engagement to facilitate change in global governance structures and empower stakeholders across the continent to deliver effective governance in Africa.
