The project provides support to the inaugural meeting of the Aswan Forum for Sustainable Peace and Development, in December 2019. Hosted by Egypt, the Forum aims to bring together heads of states and governments, leaders from national governments, regional and international organizations and financial institutions, the private sector, and civil society, as well as visionaries, scholars, and prominent experts, to develop an Agenda for Peace, Security and Development in Africa.
The expected outcome for this project is that states, civil society, the private sector and regional and international organizations effectively collaborate on implementing African-led and gender-responsive solutions to the evolving challenges of peacebuilding, conflict prevention and sustainable development on the continent.
