A New Dawn

Shaping A New Economic Narrative in Africa

About Us

We are excited to announce the official launch of the African Economic Development Forum (AEDF), a pioneering think tank committed to addressing the socio-economic imbalance affecting African communities both in the UK, Europe, and across the African continent.

As a not-for-profit organization, AEDF serves as a catalyst for sustainable development, bringing together a diverse network of leaders, thinkers, and changemakers who share a common vision: to uplift and empower African people by fostering inclusive economic growth, innovation, and equitable development.

This maiden event marks the beginning of a collaborative journey where Africans in the diaspora, African nations, and our allies across the globe unite to tackle the pressing challenges facing the African continent. By leveraging the collective expertise and resources of our members, including African leaders, heads of government, corporate organizations, and NGOs, we aim to create actionable strategies and impactful solutions.

Invitation to Collaborate

We invite researchers, economists, government officials, and organizations to engage with the AEDF platform, contribute to its growth, and utilize its resources to drive meaningful change. Together, we can leverage data and research to foster an environment of economic prosperity and social equity for all Africans.

Objective

Our platform is dedicated to collecting, analyzing, and disseminating critical data on various aspects of economic activity in Africa. By providing accurate and up-to-date information, we aim to support policymakers, businesses, and organizations in making informed decisions that contribute to the socio-economic advancement of African communities.

Impact

The establishment of this platform underscores AEDF’s commitment to empowering African nations and their leaders with the tools and knowledge needed to make impactful economic decisions. By bridging the data gap and providing a robust foundation for research, we are helping to create a future where African economies can thrive, supported by well-informed, strategic actions.
