12 The Challenges and Opportunities of the Africa We Want, the Vision 2063 The African Aspirations for 2063 The seven (7) African Aspirations were derived through a consultative process with the African Citizenry. These are: A Prosperous Africa, based on inclusive growth and sustainable development An integrated continent, politically united, based on the ideals of Pan Africanism and the vision of Africa s Renaissance An Africa of good governance, democracy, respect for human rights, justice and the rule of law A Peaceful and Secure Africa Africa with a strong cultural identity, common heritage, values and ethics An Africa whose development is people driven, relying on the potential offered by people, especially its women and youth and caring for children An Africa as a strong, united, resilient and influential global player and partner

14 III. UCLG-AFRICA VISION ON LOCALIZING THE SDGs
15 For UCLG Africa we should keep in Mind. 1) Global and Continental Agendas have an obvious territorial dimension. 2) Their implementation has a local dimension by nature 3) A great deal of their realization falls under the responsibility of Local and Regional Governments. 4) The International Community itself recognizes that over 60% of the SDGs and the Nationally Determined Commitments in application of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change(NDCs) cannot be implemented without the involvement of Local and Regional Governments. 15
16 Based on this evidences, and in close partnership and collaboration with UCLG, UCLG-Africa is actively engaged, mobilized and involved in a strong dynamic of Localizing SDGs and other Global Agendas
17 Among the outcomes of the Global Task Force of Local and Regional Governments 5 Pillars 1. AWARENESS-RAISING 2. ADVOCACY 3. IMPLEMENTATION 4. MONITORING 5. WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE IN AN INCLUSIVE, INTEGRATED AND PARTICIPATORY WAY?
18 IV. SOME OF OUR ACHIEVEMENTS
19 1) We try to «Leave no one behind» 2) We promote «Win-Win Partnerships & Collaboration» (23 anchoring african Institutes and a Network of Partners worldwide) 3) We Advocate and Lobby at all levels and around the World 4) We promote standards of excellence and quality assurance in the field of training and capacity building. 5) We invest in Learning, Peer Learning, Training, Capacity Building and Knowledge sharing 6) We invest in Training of Trainers (60 Trainers in Africa) 7) We normalize the Human Resource Management at Local Level 8) We do believe in the Networking as a Force of Change and we work to empower them Since 2011, UCLG-Africa has created 6 Networks at Local level. 9) We commit ourself to be a «Globally engaged Academy».
