How the AU engages with its citizens: The formal, the informal and the anticipated

The AU engages with civil society through a mix of formal and informal mechanisms. Currently, a process is underway to propose a new formal engagement framework. Analysing the formal and informal mechanisms, Martin Ronceray and Andrew Songa argue that the accreditation reforms led by the AU Economic, Social and Cultural Council might fundamentally impact civil society-AU relations.
