About Africa for Sustainable Development Fellowship Program 2023
With one-third of the 2030 Agenda journey already complete, it is an opportune time to examine Africa’s progress on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) so far as well as assess what adjustments to strategies are needed to overcome the remaining obstacles.
The SDGs provide time-bound targets in key sectors—including health, education, employment, energy, infrastructure, and the environment—for all nations to achieve. There is need to achieve these targets larger than in Africa.
While progress in some areas and countries is encouraging, overall, the region will need to redouble its efforts if it is to achieve the SDGs by 2030. To be successful, there is a need for effective and coordinated partnerships to domesticate the SDGs

Benefits
The aim of the Africa Sustainable Development Fellowship is to advance integrated training on the implementation of the SDGs, and AU Agenda 2063, which are mutually reinforcing. To that end, the Fellowship provides a learning platform for follow-up and review of progress and challenges in the implementation of the two Agendas, while strengthening learning and advocating effective policy measures and actions.
The Fellowship makes important contributions to bolstering multi-stakeholder engagement and synergies, and promoting concerted efforts to implement and achieve the development objectives of the two Agendas.
