What our partners say about us

  • Great opportunity for the Panafrican Parliament

    The Charter Project Africa, is a Pan African Project, opens a great opportunity for the Panafrican Parliament to engage with spaces of collaboration between citizens, civic initiatives and African Union Policy makers at national regional and continental levels.

  • An extremely important instrument of the African Union

    The African Charter on Democracy, Elections and Governance (ACDEG) is an extremely important instrument of the African Union to address the governance and democracy deficit in Africa. The Charter Project Africa has come to re-engage civil society, the media... in the popularisation of this very important charter.
