Africa remains resilient
Policies play a crucial role in shaping a nation’s trajectory, either driving progress or imposing limitations. In recent years, global policy trends have increasingly originated from a handful of centralized sources, promoting a uniform ideological framework that seeks to redefine governance, values, and societal structures.
About Us
From the pre-colonial era to the present day, Africa’s struggle has remained consistent—the fight to preserve sovereignty, economic autonomy, and the right to self-determined development. The Center for African Policy Research and Advisory (CAfPRA) is dedicated to equipping African nations with independent, research-driven policy solutions that protect national interests, promote sustainable growth, and secure economic and political independence for future generations.
Our Mission?
Redefine Africa’s approach to policy development by prioritizing real-time issues, creating flexible policy review mechanisms, and fostering innovative strategies that enhance policy adoption and implementation across member states.
Our Commitment?
In CAfPRA our commitment lies in conducting in-depth research, offering strategic and innovative advisory services, and equipping African governments with data-driven insights to make informed decisions.
Our Focus?
We focus on policy audit and formulation to help extricate African nations from detrimental polices that threaten national sovereignty while actively promoting policies that reinforce Africa’s economic, social, and political resilience.
