Insecurity and political tension continue to undermine Africa by disrupting peacebuilding, development and governance efforts. A key driver of insecurity has been the effects of the arbitrary borders bequeathed to the African continent by the ravages of predatory colonialism. Traditional interstate wars have been increasingly replaced by intrastate conflicts.

The African Continental Free Trade Area was formally launched this year and was discussed during the annual African Union heads of state and government meeting, which was held on 6 and 7 February 2021, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. South Africa’s chairing of the assembly of heads of state was also concluded during this meeting.

Insecurity and political tensions continue to undermine African countries and communities by disrupting peacebuilding, development and governance efforts. However, a key driver of insecurity has been the constraining effects of the arbitrary borders bequeathed to the African continent by the ravages of predatory colonialism.

Similarly, the simmering conflict in South Sudan has drawn in Uganda, Sudan and Kenya into a regional conflict system. The AfCFTA can therefore contribute towards increasing security by enabling the multitude of ethnic communities that cut across state boundaries, pastoralist populations whose mode of existence necessitates crossing international boundaries, and large migrant and refugee populations to utilise the opportunities provided by the framework to ensure their socioeconomic livelihood.
