The African Union (AU) is a continental body consisting of the 55 member states that make up the countries of the African Continent. It was officially launched in 2002 as a successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU, 1963-1999). The AU is guided by its vision of “An Integrated, Prosperous and Peaceful Africa, driven by its own citizens and representing a dynamic force in the global arena.”
The work of the AU is implemented through several principal decision making organs:- The Assembly of Heads of State and Government, the Executive Council, the Permanent Representatives Committee (PRC), Specialised Technical Committees (STCs), the Peace and Security Council and The African Union Commission. The AU structure promotes participation of African citizens and civil society through the Pan-African Parliament and the Economic, Social & Cultural Council (ECOSOCC).
ABOUT THE AFRICAN UNION
Organs that handle judicial and legal matters as well as human rights issues include:- African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR), African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights (AfCHPR), AU Commission on International Law (AUCIL), AU Advisory Board on Corruption (AUABC) and the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child. The AU is also working towards the establishment of continental financial institutions (The African Central Bank, The African Investment Bank and the African Monetary Fund).
The Regional Economic Communities (RECs) and the African Peer Review Mechanism are also key bodies that that constitute the structure of the African Union.
To ensure the realisation of its objectives and the attainment of the Pan African Vision of an integrated, prosperous and peaceful Africa, Agenda 2063 was developed as a strategic framework for Africa’s long term socio-economic and integrative transformation. Agenda 2063 is Africa’s strategic framework that aims to deliver on the goals of inclusive and sustainable development and is a concrete manifestation of the pan-African drive for unity, self-determination, freedom, progress and collective prosperity pursued under Pan-Africanism and African Renaissance. It is anchored on the AU Constitutive Act, AU vision, AU Assembly 50th Anniversary Solemn Declaration of 2013 and seven African aspirations for 2063, and sets out a national, regional and continental blueprint for progress. Agenda 2063 was adopted by the AU Assembly on 31 January 2015 at its 24th Ordinary Session (Assembly/AU/Dec.565(XXIV)). In January 2016, the Assembly reiterated that Agenda 2063 is a common continental framework for socio-economic development (Assembly/AU/Dec.588(XXVI)).
The seven aspirations for 2063 are:
• A prosperous Africa based on inclusive growth and sustainable development;
• An integrated continent, politically united, based on the ideals of Pan Africanism and the vision of Africa’s renaissance;
• An Africa of good governance, democracy, respect for human rights, justice and the rule of law;
• A peaceful and secure Africa;• An Africa with a strong cultural identity, common
heritage, values and ethics;• An Africa whose development is people-driven,
relying on the potential of African people, especially its women and youth, and caring for children;
• Africa as a strong, united, resilient and influential global player and partner.

Agenda 2063 is divided into a series of five 10-year plans over the 50-year horizon of Agenda 2063’s time frame. The purpose for developing the 10-year plans is to:
• Identify priority areas, set specific targets, define strategies and policy measures required to implement the First Ten-Year Implementation Plan (FTYIP) of Agenda 2063;
• Bring to fruition the fast-track programmes and initiatives outlined in the AU Assembly Malabo Decisions of June 2014 to provide the big push and breakthroughs for Africa’s economic and social transformation;
• Provide information to all key stakeholders at the national, regional and continental levels on the expected results/outcomes for the first 10 years of the plan and on the roles/assignment of responsibilities in its implementation, monitoring and evaluation;
• Outline the strategies required to ensure availability of resources and capacities together with citizens’ engagement in the implementation of the first 10-year plan.
AU Flagship Projects/Initiatives
These are projects / initiatives approved by the AU Summit as to be very urgent and relevant and whose immediate implementation will provide quick wins, impact on socio-economic development and enhance the confidence and the commitment of the African Citizenry to be the owners and drivers of Agenda 2063.
The Flagship Projects / Initiatives are:
• Integrated High Speed Train Network• Africa Virtual and E-University• African Commodity Strategy• Annual African Forum• Continental Free Trade Area• African Passport and Free Movement of People• Grand Inga Dam Project• Pan African E-Network• Silencing the Guns• African Outer Space Strategy• Single Air-Transport Network• Continental Financial Institutions
ABOUT THE EVENT
As a Continental body, the Africa we want is an Africa with strong Governance and accountability. As a result of African Union pioneering role in IPSAS implementation and public sector accounting, it is positioned as a leader to drive the implementation of accounting reforms in Africa. The African Union’s adoption of the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) was mandated by the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the African Union in January 2013. In complying with the decision, African Union implemented accrual-based IPSAS in 2014, largely supported by a grant from the World Bank under its support to the Capacity Development of the African Union. The implementation of IPSAS has resulted in the following key benefits for the African Union:
• Alignment with best practices in financial reporting and management;
• Improve transparency, accountability and corporate governance;
• Improve quality and comparability of financial statements;
• Increased capacity of staff through IPSAS trainings and certifications.
All the above have resulted in a significant improvement in performance and enhanced the credibility of AU from
the perspective of stakeholders particularly Member States and Partners.
The African Union Commission organized “2018 Public Financial Management Forum’’ in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia which focused on facilitating the adoption and implementation of International Pvublic Sector Accounting Standards across the Continent. This successful meeting has secured the African Union a permanent observer seat in the IPSAS Board. Furthermore, the meeting also exposed the need to establish a platform of exchange and communication around the existing projects launched to strengthen Public Financial Management in the African Continent hence the need for an association for Accountant Generals.
Over the years, AU has established close relationship with continental and international Professional Accounting Bodies such as PAFA, CIPFA, IPSASB, ICGFM, AFROSAI-E and recently with ESAAG. As part of African Union objective to promote a sound public financial management at continental level and strengthen the capacities of the policy makers, AU once again is holding high level meeting on public sector accounting supported by these professional and accounting bodies.

WELCOME ADDRESS BY THE ACTING DIRECTOR OF PBFA
Speakers/Panelists
Your Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you, on behalf of the Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson of African Union Commission, to our second conference on Public Financial Management on Strengthening Public Sector Accounting in Africa.
In a changing, demanding and complex world, high quality accounting and reporting frameworks are essential. Our aim for this event is to discuss Public Sector Accounting and in that way to learn from each other’s experiences.
We are indeed pleased that so many eminent speakers in this field are present to lead the discussions. I am also delighted to see that –once more- there has been such a strong response to our invitation.
The fact that we are gathered here under the auspices of the African Union is particularly appropriate as it intends to lead Public Sector Accounting Reforms in Africa.
Over the next three days, we have the opportunity - and indeed the responsibility - to deliberate on public sector accounting reforms in Africa and also share views on the IPSASB 2019-2023 Strategy and work plan for Africa Region.
I wish you three days of very fruitful discussions and hope that you find your visit to the African Union Commission worthwhile.
Once again, I am honored that the African Union can offer such an appropriate platform for this gathering.
Thank you for your attention.

Dr. Lucie Phillips is the Owner and Chairman of IBI International. During a career in international development that spans over 30 years, Dr. Phillips has contributed innovative methodologies, produced consistently solid results, and authored numerous scholarly publications. Dr. Phillips’ early work reflected innovative foresight, contributing to what later became major trends. In the 1970s, when the development community had not yet recognized that the problems it was facing were structural, she pointed it out on project after project. In the 1980s, when investment promotion focused exclusively on foreign investment, she initiated one of the first Doing Business studies, that examined factors affecting
local as well as international investors. When poverty studies were still in their infancy, she developed indicators such as the low-income household consumer price index (CPI) basket, that could be tracked through prices instead of repeated surveys.
In the 1990s, when business persons’ networks brought in only token women-owned firms, she helped West African businesswomen organize a network of their own. When artisanal mining boomed in the 1990s and observers bemoaned its effect on the poor workers, she listened to mine workers and everyone else throughout the value chain. It eventually became clear and was documented that the mine workers could earn six to ten times what they earned in agriculture. Posing the question, «Would you give up the opportunity to multiply your income by ten?». She demonstrated that the maintenance of an extraordinary number of middle-income jobs justified developing policies and programs to meet new realities. Since then she has worked on improving the regulations, conditions and impacts of mining -small and large - to preserve those jobs, reduce rural poverty and multiply rural investments.
She holds a Ph.D. in Economic History and African Studies from Columbia University in New York and a bachelor’s degree from Smith College. Dr. Phillips is fluent in French, and has studied Wolof, Hausa, Arabic, Spanish, German and Kiswahili.
