AfDB 2026 Annual Meeting: Africa24 Live Coverage from Brazzaville Brazzaville, Congo – The Africa24 Group is set to provide comprehensive live coverage of the African Development Bank (AfDB) 61st Meeting of the Board of Governors and the 52nd Meeting of the African Development Fund, taking place from May 25 to 29, 2026. Hosted at the Kintélé International Centre, the meetings will gather over 3,000 participants, including heads of state, finance ministers, and delegates from the AfDB’s 81 member countries.
The first term of Dr. Sidi Ould Tah, the ninth President of the AfDB Group, will be marked by these meetings, which focus on the theme ‘Mobilising resources on a large scale to finance Africa’s development in a fragmented world’.
The AfDB’s President has already made significant strides, including the successful replenishment of the African Development Fund (ADF-17), which raised a record $11 billion. These meetings come at a critical time, with Africa facing a $400 billion annual development financing gap. President Ould Tah’s New African Financial Architecture for Development (NAFAD) aims to mobilize Africa’s vast savings, including those in pension funds and sovereign wealth funds, for investable projects with socio-economic impact.
The Africa24 Group’s coverage will include live coverage of opening ceremonies, economic forums, thematic panels, and exclusive interviews with key stakeholders.
The group, with its extensive reach across the continent, will ensure that the discussions and outcomes of the AfDB Annual Meetings are accessible to a global audience.
The AfDB’s role in mobilizing development financing for Africa is pivotal, especially in the current fragmented global economic landscape.
The Annual Meetings will be instrumental in shaping strategies and policies to drive Africa’s development in the coming years.
