The APRM and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Centre for Africa (The SDGCA) partnered in 2019 to enhance evidence-based research and quality assessment of governance aspects pertinent to the Africa Union Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want, particularly in view of Aspiration Three of the AU 2063 agenda and SDG 16 – strong, efficient and effective institutions and peaceful societies. This report is one of the continued joint efforts of both bodies to support African countries in understanding governance trends for planning, implementing and monitoring the two agendas in Africa.

The report provides a summary of progress against SDG 16/Aspiration Three of the AU Agenda 2063 on the continent, drawing on mixed methods, including a holistic review of Voluntary National Reviews (VNRs) submitted to the High-Level Political Form (HLPF) by 53 African countries from 2017-2022, and AU Member States’ contributions to progress on Agenda 2063 through the AU’s continental reporting on Agenda 2063.
