North Africa - 2021-2025 Regional Strategy

Set up in September 2019, the North Africa Regional Office covers five countries: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Egypt. This strategy aims to position AFD Group’s action as a support for building new environmental and social balances for this space, which has deep-rooted ties to Europe and France.

The strategic goal of AFD Group will be to support the region towards development trajectories aiming for new environmental and societal balances.
This action revolves around three main objectives:

• Strengthen territories’ resilience to accelerating climate change and support low-carbon transitions
• Contribute to consolidating a social contract, as a vector of stability, cohesion and reduction of inequalities
• Promote economic and social transformations that create new opportunities

In addition, the Group’s activity in the region will be guided by two cross-cutting objectives: promote knowledge production and expertise-sharing to
serve public policy dialogue and seek partnership-based solutions to tackle regional-scale issues.
