Union of African Railways

The Union of African Railways (UAR) is a collaborative organization that brings together railway companies across Africa to promote regional integration and improve transportation infrastructure. Its goal is to coordinate rail development, standardize operations, and facilitate cross-border train services, boosting economic growth and trade. By working together, member countries aim to create a more efficient, reliable, and interconnected rail network, making it easier to move goods and people across the continent. The UAR plays a key role in fostering regional cooperation and supporting Africa’s broader development goals through improved rail connectivity.
