OAU Heads of State Conference
The OAU Heads of State Conference was a gathering of African leaders organized by the Organization of African Unity (OAU). Held periodically, the conference aimed to discuss and coordinate policies on regional peace, security, economic development, and political issues. It served as a platform for leaders to collaborate, address common challenges, and strategize on promoting unity and progress across Africa. The conference played a key role in shaping continental initiatives, fostering diplomatic relationships, and advocating for independence and stability during the organization's existence until it was succeeded by the African Union in 2001.
