Description

By engaging with key stakeholders, Africans, people of African descent, and the wider international community, including state and non-state actors, ADS 2025 aims to integrate reparatory justice into development frameworks. ADS 10 aims to highlight the vital contributions of youth, women, and marginalised groups, fostering a shared collective memory and a united vision for justice and equity. Throughout the series, the exploration of the past, present, and future of reparations will be emphasised. It will focus on learning from history, addressing current challenges, and building a future of healing and justice. ADS 2025 is a call to action, amplifying the voices of Africans and people of African descent and promoting inclusive participation. It seeks to translate political commitments into concrete actions, mobilise resources, and forge partnerships for reparatory justice.

This year's Africa Dialogue Series event is organized by the United Nations Office of the Special Adviser on Africa (OSAA) and the African Union Permanent Observer Mission to the United Nations (AUPOM) in partnership with the UN Office of the President of the General Assembly (OPGA), UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), African Union Economic Social and Cultural Council (AU-ECOSOCC), UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), UN Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), UN Population Fund (UNFPA), Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and Pan-African Parliament (PAP).
