Activity under preparation African Mechanism for Early Response - AMER The Action will contribute to the renewed and enhanced cooperation on peace and security of the Africa-EU Partnership by supporting African-led non-military initiatives aimed at preventing and managing conflicts. Initiatives may include activities on preventive diplomacy, mediation, confidence building, reconciliation, support to implementation of peace and security provisions of peace agreements, and support to civilian peace missions.The Action is based on the lessons learnt from the implementation of the Early Response Mechanism (ERM) of the African Peace Facility. The key idea underpinning both ERM and AMER is to encourage AU/EU joint assessment of potential or actual conflicts and finance African early response to prevent or manage them. While the objective remains relevant, the ERM, implemented by the African Union, has struggled to deliver results. The limited African Union Commission¿s (AUC) capacity to mobilize funds, recruit personnel and undertake procurement rapidly has impaired ERM¿s capacity to finance agreed initiatives in a rapid and effective manner. The African Mechanism for Early Response (AMER) action will allow continued EU finance to African-led responses, based on joint African/European assessment. Decisions on the initiatives to be financed by AMER will be informed by guidance from the AU Peace and Security Council and adopted by consensus within the Executive Committee of the Mechanism, composed by AU and EU.Another part of Early Response will be actions carried out by Civil Society Organizations.

Blue Africa - Support to AUC Contract related to: Blue Africa - Support to AUC - Africa¿s future long-term water agenda is associated with Agenda 2063 `The Africa We Want¿ and especially Aspiration #1 ¿A Prosperous Africa, based on Inclusive Growth and Sustainable Development¿, within which Water Security[1] is a Priority Area. The 2021 African Heads of State responded to COVID in the Green Recovery Action Plan of the African Union (AU), which defines their action on water under two long-standing political instruments; namely the Africa Water Vision 2025 and the 2008 Sharm-el-Sheikh commitments. &nbsp;This Action will support the implementation of the Vision and commitments by AU entities - specifically the African Union Commission (AUC), the African Ministers¿ Council on Water (AMCOW) with its water basin body, ANBO, and the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD). The Specific Objectives of this action are:1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To strengthen regional and national institutional frameworks for water governance,&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To improve mobilisation of finance and stimulate investments in Africa¿s water agenda, including climate adaptation and mitigation.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To further develop afore-mentioned African Institutions¿ benchmarking and monitoring of water security The EU will be an active and visible contributor to water governance and management with African partners, in alignment with priorities to ensure water security, reducing climate change related impacts and leaving no one behind.

EU-Africa Safety in Aviation (EU-ASA) <p>Objectives The overall objective is to improve aviation safety in Africa. The specific objective of the EU-Africa Safety in Aviation action is to assist African States to meet their obligations under the Chicago Convention to establish an effective aviation safety oversight system Rationale for intervention In Africa, the aviation industry is vital for socio-economic development, international trade, tourism and regional integration. It is particularly important due to the size of the continent and physical barriers such as deserts, tropical forests and mountains and the limited landbased transport network. This action will contribute to improve aviation safety in Africa in particular by developing the capacity of the Regional Safety Oversight Organisations (RSOOs). This capacity building will be done via the development of harmonised regulations, common oversight processes and training. Enhancing aviation safety at a regional level will contribute to growth and continental integration. Apart from in some specific countries, deploying efforts at national level would have very little chance of promoting harmonisation of civil aviation regulations and safety oversight practices across the continent. On the contrary, harmonising civil aviation regulations and safety oversight practices at a sub-regional level, will multiply the chance of reaching common references across groups of countries and increase fair competition and enable the reduction of transport cost and boosting of intra-African trade. </p>

APSA IV Suppor <p class="ql-align-justify">In line with the JAES and the MoU on P&S&amp;G, the basic assumption upon which this Action relies is that if an effective support is provided to African organisations that have a mandate to promote peace and security, then a more effective strategy and action for peace and stability in Africa will be achieved. This Action aims to contribute, in particular, towards the achievement of SDG 16 and will be pursued through the AU and RECs/RMs. It does so with the understanding that there can be no decisive and sustainable African-led peace and security initiatives without having the proper structures, mechanisms and policy guidelines in place at both continental and regional levels.

Sustainable Urban Integration of Displacement Affected Communities (SUIDAC) in Sub-Sahara African cities <p class="ql-align-justify"><span style="color: rgb(13, 13, 13);">The Action will address the nexus between forced displacement and urban development in five Sub-Saharan countries: Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan and Uganda. The Action target beneficiaries are Displacement-Affected Communities (DACs), as well as their hosting cities. This Action defines DACs as both the forcibly displaced populations (refugees, asylum seekers, IDPs, returnees) </span><strong style="color: rgb(13, 13, 13);"><u>and </u></strong><span style="color: rgb(13, 13, 13);">host communities. The Action¿s approach is to design area-based interventions targeting the identified DACs as a whole group of beneficiaries. This approach is fit to tackle nimbly the often blurred realities affecting displaced and hosts in urban contexts, while not overlooking the communities¿ specific needs. Cities are a new environment for the implementation of EU forced displacement programs. SUIDAC will be the first urban displacement programme financed through the 'Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation instrument ¿ Global Europe' ('NDICI-Global Europe') in the SSA region. The Action builds on, and expands the EU Trust Fund programme ¿CRRF: Inclusive Urban Development and Mobility¿ ending in 2023. Moving forward, SUIDAC will help tackling the challenges arising from sudden and/or sustained forced displacement currently happening in the secondary cities targeted by the Action.</span></p>
Migration and Mobility Dialogue support programme (MMD III) MMD III¿s overall objective will be to support the orderly, safe, regular and responsible migration and mobility of people within Africa, and between Africa and Europe. Its specific objectives will be: 1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To improve governance and cooperation on migration and mobility within Africa and between Africa and the EU through dialogue and knowledge sharing; 2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To improve the role of civil society organisations (CSOs) (including diaspora organisations) and local authorities (LAs) as actors for development in the field of migration at regional/multi-country/continental-levels.MMD III will comprise two main components, firstly an ¿institutional¿ component including the Secretariats of the Khartoum and Rabat Processes, and &nbsp;&nbsp;C2CMMD). Secondly, in order to bolster links between the dialogues and the JVAP framework on one side, and civil society, and local authorities on the other, the 2nd component will provide support to initiatives (selected via a call for proposals)&nbsp;to carry out projects on migration. This will add an operational element to MMD III, helping to translate engagements and commitments into concrete action, which will strengthen the sustainability and impact of the dialogues. These projects will tackle some of the main migration and mobility challenges at regional/multi-country/continental level, harnessing the expertise and knowledge of CSOs and LAs. &nbsp;In terms of beneficiaries, MMD III¿s actions will benefit governments and their agencies and institutions ¿ providing them access to a space where they can dialogue with other governments on migration and mobility as well as a forum for policy and knowledge exchange. It will also benefit civil society and LAs by providing them with financial support to carry out their activities. Due to the development of policies to facilitate regular safe and orderly migration, final beneficiaries will be the migrant population as well as migrants¿ families and communities.&nbsp;MMD III will contribute to equitable digital transformation as a driver of sustainable development, building on previous phases, which explored, in particular, digital technologies in the area of remittances, as well as mobilising diaspora investment. Building on lessons learnt and recommendations from MMDI &amp; II, MMD III will continue to make use of virtual solutions to ensure cooperation and continued engagement with and among partners. It will continue to support the use of digital technology for the generation and collection of data on migration supporting.
