30 Years of ACCORD

Promoting dialogue towards building peaceful coexistence in an interdependent world​: ACCORD seeks to encourage and promote the constructive resolution of disputes, by the peoples of Africa, and so assist in achieving political stability and socio-economic recovery, within just and democratic societies, towards peaceful co-existence.

Working together for a better world

Peace is more than the absence of war, it is also the absence of poverty, inequality and unemployment
