ECOWAS member States to re-engage in the AU's peer-review mechanism
How can the adherence and active participation of ECOWAS member-countries in the processes of the African Union’s flagship governance initiative, the African Peer Review mechanism (APRM), enhance regional integration in West Africa? This will be the subject of a West Africa Regional Workshop on the APRM to bring together about 50 high-level delegates from the sub-region. With the strong support of the Ivorian Government, the workshop has been jointly convened by the Secretariat of the AU’s APRM, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the UN Economic Commission for Africa (ECA). The event will aim to build on the gains of the last workshops, of the same series, held in Chad (for Central African countries) and Kenya (for East African countries) to breathe a new lease of life into adhering member states’ appropriation of APRM’s principles and utilization of its tools and processes, to reinvigorate interaction among member countries in the spirit of peer learning and to stimulate enough interest in the four ECOWAS non-members of the Mechanism to come aboard the Continental Governance Mechanism.
