The African Union – European Union (AU-EU) Digital for Development (D4D) Hub is an innovative project that promotes collaboration between African and European stakeholders to build a joint digital future. The project supports African institutions to lay grounds for an inclusive digital transformation. It offers a comprehensive package of services, products and activities aimed at creating an enabling environment for Africa to seize the digitalisation opportunities, namely:

  • providing technical assistance to increase the capability of regional and national institutions to develop and operationalise digital transformation plans;
  • facilitating exchanges of knowledge (experiences, skills and expertise) between African and European stakeholders;
  • organising dialogues between actors from the digital ecosystem to support participative policymaking and foster new partnerships.​

In a true Team Europe spirit, the project brings together the European Union and five of its Member States to leverage expertise and resources to advance digital cooperation with Africa. The Luxembourg Government is a funding partner of the AU-EU D4D Hub and LuxDev directly participates in its implementation together with Enabel, GIZ, MFA Estonia, AFD and Expertise France.

The AU-EU D4D Hub is part of the D4D Hub, an EU-led multi-stakeholder platform that promotes global partnerships to ensure that digital technologies improve lives worldwide.
