| dc.description | The Groundbreaking Ceremony of the iconic Africa Hall Renovation Project was held on 14 October 2022 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The State Minister for Political and Economic Diplomacy of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, H.E. Ambassador Tesfaye Yilma, affirming Ethiopia’s commitment to multilateralism, said Addis Ababa was privileged to host the ECA Headquarters, which houses the Africa Hall as well as the Organization of African Unity, now the African Union.
“The symbolism of this building is significant as we prepare to celebrate the 60th year of the founding of the OAU in 2023. This is a time for Africa to reflect on how to manage complications that trace their origins back to colonialism. Africa is experiencing economic marginalization, political and security crisis, and health emergencies,” Mr. Yilma said, noting that the iconic project should inspire current generations to overcome challenges as their predecessors did. | en |
