The African Union, in a bid to promote and defend African common positions on issues of interest to the continent and its peoples, is awarding Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) involved in Youth, Women, Peace, and Security.

The award seeks to recognize the significant contribution that civil society makes to the implementation of the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) agenda.

This initiative is also consistent with the African Union’s goal of creating a people-centered community and achieving Agenda 2063 for shared prosperity and well-being, unity and integration, and one continent of free citizens and horizons where the potential of women and young people is fully realized.
