Statement by H.E. Dr. Monique Nsanzabaganwa, Deputy Chairperson of the African Union Commission At Ground-breaking Ceremony - Africa Hall Project
The Africa Hall was conceived to accompany the Continent unity growing, while it was still struggling for freedom and independence from colonialismIn this building what looked like a dream of a few leaders became reality in February 1963, overcoming the resistance of anachronistic nations trying to keep privileges and unjust policies in place.
The AU policy organs endorsed the Charter for African Cultural Renaissance in 2006 which is the main policy instrument in the sector. The Commission is now working closely with Member States to ensure that this critical policy tool is implemented since it entered into force in October 2020.
