On Monday 25th of March at the United Nations Conference Centre (UNECA) in Addis Ababa, the AfriquEurope consortium members had their first meeting, in the framework of the Conference

“Africa – Europe Relations and AU – EU Partnership in a Multi-Crises World”.

This first day of the proceedings of the conference served as an internal coordination event, that allowed all partners of the consortium to meet in person, present their institutions, discuss on organisational matters regarding the project and during the afternoon’s sessions meet in separate rooms as Teams per thematic areas.

After the closure of the first day’s proceedings, we were all privileged to be invited at the European Union’s Ambassador’s residence for a networking drink, hosted by H.E. Ambassador Roland KOBIA (EU Delegation to Ethiopia), who was also the guest speaker on the second day of the conference.
