African Union

As visitors enter this site, they will be presented with a collage of African nations coming together to form the entire continent, accompanied by the words “Africa must unite.” It is a visually stimulating image, and one that sets the tone quite nicely for the content within. The site is the homepage of the African Union (AU), which was created in 1999 as part of a declaration from the Organisation of African Unity (OAU). While their mission is complex to say the least, their primary goal is to promote the “…accelerated socio-economic integration of the continent, which will lead to greater unity and solidarity between African countries and peoples.” The site presents a cornucopia of material on their work, contained within sections titled “Member States”, “Conferences & Events”, and “Documents”. One of the best places to start is the “News and Events” area, which contains a sampling of information on their recent work on gender equity, sustainable development, higher education systems, and so on. As might be expected, visitors can also browse through many of these materials in Arabic, French, and Portuguese.
