Over the past weekend at the #AUSummit, Africa’s shared priorities were clear. 🌍 Now the test is delivery that: 🔹Unlocks financing 🔹Strengthens institutions 🔹Builds systems that serve 🔹Creates opportunities that reach everyone #Agenda2063 is a promise we must keep.

Great exchange w/ H.E. @YusufTuggar, Nigeria's Min. of Foreign Affairs. 🇳🇬 Advancing democracy, cooperation & inclusion across Africa requires bold partnerships. 
UNDP remains committed to supporting these efforts, incl. through the Regional Partnership for Democracy. #AUSummit

Democracy must deliver, not just at the ballot box, but in people’s daily lives. 
At today’s Ministerial Forum on Regional Partnerships for Democracy, I joined partners to advance solutions to restore trust, strengthen institutions & make governance work for citizens. #AUSummit

Africa’s first #G20 Presidency opened new space for shaping global priorities. At today’s Social Legacy Side Event, we discussed how to turn that momentum into results through institutional leadership, clear accountability, and alignment with #Agenda2063. #AUSummit

We leave with one thing in focus: collaboration continues after the room. Media partners, UNDP and the wider UN system each bring their own role. The value is in how we work together to shape the narrative of #Africa from #Africa. #OurStoryAfrica

Impact reporting bridges the gap between policy and people. At the Media Clinic, we explored how @UNDP flagships like #AFSIT & the regional #AfCFTA portfolio can translate complex data into stories that highlight progress and context. #OurStoryAfrica
