Registry of Joint Initiatives for “The Africa We Want” (JIRA)

Purpose

To catalogue collaborative initiatives aligned with Agenda 2063 and SDGs involving two or more institutions (public, private, regional, or international).

This registry captures practical collaboration around Agenda 2063 as well as the SDGs, not just policy documents.

Typical examples:

• AfCFTA implementation programmes
• PIDA infrastructure initiatives
• Joint AU–AfDB programmes
• Multi-partner investment initiatives
• Regional value chain initiatives
• Continental digital or climate programmes

The defining feature is multi-institution collaboration.
