| dc.description.abstract | The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is
primarily a project to promote intra-African trade, but
it also seeks to further the African Union’s Agenda 2063
aspirations to enhance the competitiveness of African
economies and strengthen “Africa’s place in global
trade”.1 The implementation of the AfCFTA will have
implications not only for African consumers, firms and
governments, but also for Africa’s trade and
investment relations with external partners.
Recognising this, the European Union (EU), Africa’s
foremost trade partner and a committed supporter of
the AfCFTA, has set out its vision of the AfCFTA as a step
towards the “long-term objective of a continent-to-
continent free trade area between Africa and the EU”. |
