Pan-African Parliament

The Pan-African Parliament (PAP) is a legislative body of the African Union (AU), established to promote unity and cooperation among African countries. Its primary role is to provide a platform for African representation and dialogue on issues affecting the continent. Founded in 2004, the PAP aims to enhance democratic governance, human rights, and development across Africa. While it does not have binding legislative power, it influences policy by discussing and recommending actions on matters like economic development and social issues, thus contributing to the continent's overall progress and integration.
