As per the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Addis Ababa Action Agenda, African Member States and the international community have made joint commitments to enhance domestic resource mobilization. This objective was also underpinned by the African Union's Agenda 2063's goals and aspirations, especially as articulated in its Goal 20 which envisages Africa taking full responsibility for financing its development goals.
The event is co-organized by the UN Office of the Special Adviser on Africa (OSAA) and the AU African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM).
