This edition of the 'Africa-EU Cooperation Forum on ICT' (Dec. 2-3, 2013) is held in the framework of the AUC Internet/ICT Week and is taking place this week in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
The year 2013 marks the 50th anniversary celebration of the formation of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) / African Union (AU). The AUC Internet/ICT Week is part of a series of celebration events. This is thus a wonderful token of trust and confidence from the AUC towards the EuroAfrica-ICT/P8 Partnership.
Aiming at strengthening and supporting the development of cooperation on ICT research and ICT4D between Africa and Europe, the '2013 Africa-EU Cooperation Forum on ICT' is the sixth of a series of very successful conferences organised by the EuroAfrica-ICT Initiative under the aegis of the European Commission (EC, DG CONNECT) and the African Union Commissions (AUC, Information Society Division) and in the framework of the Joint Africa-EU Strategic Partnership (JAES).
