Validation Workshop on Mauritius National African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Response Strategy

Validation Workshop on Mauritius National African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA)  Response Strategy
25 mars, 2022
Balaclava, Mauritius

Background: Support of UNECA to AU member states and Mauritius

The Government of Mauritius, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Regional Integration and International Trade (MOFARIT) has developed its African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) National Response Strategy. This strategy was developed with technical support from the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) (Sub-Regional Office for Southern Africa and Africa Trade Policy Center) and funded by the European Union (EU), as part of ECA’s mandate to help African Member States formulate National AfCFTA implementation strategies so that they can leverage opportunities from Africa’s largest free trade area by the number of its members.

It is expected that the AfCFTA National Response strategy will recommend concrete actions that Mauritius should undertake in order to best leverage the opportunities arising under the AfCFTA and address related challenges. A National Validation Workshop will take place on 25 March 2022, gathering stakeholders on the island to review, discuss and validate the Response strategy.
