The African Union (AU)

The African Union (AU) maintains an active presence in Zimbabwe through its Southern Africa Regional Office, which coordinates continental initiatives across member states in the region. Based in Harare, this office supports AU programs related to governance, economic integration, and peace and security matters affecting Zimbabwe and neighboring countries. The AU engages with Zimbabwean government institutions, civil society, and regional bodies to advance Agenda 2063, the continent’s strategic framework for inclusive growth and sustainable development. Its operations in Zimbabwe include facilitating diplomatic dialogue, monitoring elections, and implementing projects on infrastructure, agriculture, and youth employment. The organization works from offices located in the Harare CBD, serving as a liaison between the AU Commission in Addis Ababa and Southern African member states.
