Africa’s ability to finance its own development depends on how effectively it can retain, collect, and manage its resources.
The African Union is advancing tax justice by driving coordinated continental action to curb illicit financial flows, strengthen tax systems, and improve governance. Through frameworks aligned with Agenda 2063 and instruments such as the AU Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption, the AU is supporting Member States to modernise revenue administration, enhance transparency, and enforce accountability.
Institutions like the @AUABC_ and the @APRMorg are strengthening oversight and governance, while the @AfCFTA is helping formalise trade and reduce financial leakages.
This is how Africa is building fiscal sovereignty mobilising domestic resources, reducing dependency, and ensuring that the continent’s wealth works for its people. #Agenda2063
Hosting the Fifth Session in Abuja provides an opportunity for Nigeria, through the @NigeriaRevenue (NRS), to contribute to continental dialogue on tax administration reforms and domestic resource mobilisation strategies, while strengthening collaboration among African tax administrations and institutions.
