Abstract

This paper aimed at investigating the rationalities, Challenges and prospects of Africa Union institutional reforms agendas. The paper has been analysed by using the documentary source of data. The institutional reforms of the African Union (AU) have gained significant prominence in recent years within the framework of promoting regional integration and strengthening the African collective action. Africa has witnessed significant changes over the past two decades on several fronts, which has made reforming the AU more urgent than ever before. The main attention of the institutional reform is its focus on key priorities with continental scope, realign AU institutions to deliver against those priorities, manage the AU efficiently at both political and operational levels and finance the AU ourselves and sustainably. However, having these focus areas with prospects, challenges facing the institutional reform agenda are prevailed and needs homogenous intervention amongst member State for real implementation of the AU reform.

本文旨在调查非洲联盟机构改革议程的合理性、挑战和前景。利用文献资料来源对这篇论文进行了分析。近年来,在促进区域一体化和加强非洲集体行动的框架内,非洲联盟(非盟)的体制改革得到了显著重视。过去二十年来,非洲在多个方面发生了重大变化,这使得改革非盟比以往任何时候都更加紧迫。机构改革的主要关注点是关注非洲大陆范围内的关键优先事项,调整非盟机构以实现这些优先事项,在政治和业务层面有效管理非盟,并为非盟自身和可持续发展提供资金。然而,鉴于这些重点领域有前景,机构改革议程面临的挑战普遍存在,需要成员国进行同质干预,才能真正实施非盟改革。
