African economic integration

African economic integration refers to countries on the continent working together to strengthen their economies by removing barriers like tariffs and trade restrictions, promoting investment, and creating shared infrastructure. The goal is to boost trade, create jobs, and improve living standards across Africa. Initiatives like the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) aim to unite African nations into a single market, making it easier to do business across borders and compete globally. This cooperation encourages sustainable growth and regional development, fostering a more prosperous and interconnected Africa.
