The International Dialogue Centre (KAICIID) and African Union Commission through the Citizens and Diaspora Directorate (CIDO) organized the 2nd Interfaith Dialogue Forum on 10 to 11 November 2016 in Abuja, Nigeria. The delegates approved a Declaration and a Plan of Action on their joint work in education, partnerships, media and development.
The Declaration acknowledges the need to build partnerships between the African Union, interfaith, faith-based groups, organisations and religious leaders and reiterates their commitment to play an effective role in the successful implementation of the African Aspirations outlined in the Continental Agenda 2063 framework.
As part of the Action Plan, the African Union will support the Steering Committee to establish a 10 year interfaith development agenda for all African Union member states.
