The Africa Commission focuses on how to create more jobs and further economic growth in Africa in the years to come. The overall focus is on youth, employment and economic growth.

The Danish Government is actively seeking to put economic growth and employment in Africa higher on the international agenda. As a consequence an international, high level Africa Commission focusing on Effective Development Cooperation with Africa has been established.

The aim of the Commission is to present new and creative strategies to revitalize and strengthen international development cooperation with Africa.

The ambition is that the strategies will rejuvenate the political willingness to improve the effectiveness of international development cooperation with Africa to the benefit of its people.
