The Canadian Council on Africa (CCAfrica) is the only Canadian
organization dedicated to the economic development of Africa.
It is a non-profit, membership-based organization established in
2002, the year of the Kananaskis G8 Summit, where the agenda
included the development of a self-help plan for Africa. CCAfrica
focuses on the future of African economy and the positive role
that Canada can play in meeting some of the challenges in
Africa.
CCAfrica’s current members come from large, medium
and small Canadian and African enterprises, education
institutions such as universities and colleges, and agencies of
the federal and provincial governments. With more than 150
active members in all sectors of the economy - infrastructure,
education, legal, environmental, natural resources, energy,
consulting engineering, construction, transportation, mining -
and 4 offices across Canada- CCAfrica is essential when it comes
to economic relations between Canada and Africa.
