The webinar will raise awareness on the establishment and benefits of an African Debt Monitoring Mechanism (ADMM) within the African Union Commission. The ADMM will be a centralized continental platform for collecting, collating, aggregating, and standardizing debt-related data in Africa. The data will then become a foundation for dialogue and decision making on public debt. It could also be a platform for African countries to acquire capacity and policy advice on their fiscal situation, forecast, and negotiation strategy with external creditors. The webinar will also be an opportunity to engage and foster an integrated view among CSOs and development partners to uptake the idea and provide full support in the anticipated African Union Specialised Technical Committee meeting scheduled for February 2024.
