African Academy for Civic Engagement AAEC Volume 1

In December 2020, the United States created the African Civic Engagement Academy (AAEC or ACEA), a program designed to introduce civic engagement strategies and provide a space for leaders to adapt these strategies to local conditions. The Program, the very first of its kind to be created, contained three courses: Productive Engagement with Government, Inclusion and Governance with Diversity, and Media as a Bridge between Civil Society and Government. Participation in the Program had enabled selected leaders to develop professional skills and acquire tools to improve community and government engagement. All participants were expected to develop a Civic Engagement Action Plan in which they had identified the steps to bring a civic engagement project to life in their respective community or governmental unit. The authors of the 60 best Action Plans were selected to take part in the ACEA Summit in May 2022 in Accra.
