<p>The next African Union (AU) Executive Council will be on 4-5 July 2019 in Niamey,
Niger. It will take place along-side the first Mid-Year Coordination Meeting of the
AU and the African Regional Economic Communities on 7-8 July. Attendance at such events
by partners like the United Kingdom is by invitation. The Government's priorities
for the AU are reflected in the strategic partnership agreement between the AU and
the United Kingdom signed in Addis Ababa on 21 February 2019. Through this partnership
we will work together to support a shared vision for a prosperous, secure and innovative
Africa, building on growing economic ties to forge new opportunities for young people
and reinforce our close bonds. Further information on the partnership can be found
