African Union

The African Union (AU) is a continental organization made up of 55 African countries. Established in 2001, its main goal is to promote unity, peace, and cooperation among African nations. The AU works on issues such as economic development, political stability, and human rights, striving to improve living conditions across the continent. It also addresses challenges like conflicts and health crises. The AU operates similar to the European Union but focuses specifically on the unique needs and contexts of African countries, fostering collaboration to achieve common goals and support sustainable development.
