The African Development Bank is Africa’s premier multilateral development finance institution, dedicated to advancing economic development and social progress across its 54 African member countries and 27 non-regional member countries. The Bank’s mission centers on mobilizing resources for development projects and promoting economic integration throughout the African continent.
Over the past decade, the Bank has significantly expanded its operations and modernized its systems to enhance efficiency and deliver greater value. The African Development Bank Group Ten-Year Strategy 2024-2033 outlines how the Bank will invest in Africa’s best asset: its vibrant young men and women. Africa’s population, which is the youngest and fastest growing in the world, presents the continent with an unparalleled demographic window of opportunity. To sharply focus the objectives of the Ten-Year Strategy and ensure greater developmental impact, four cardinal points have been identified to accelerate delivery for Africa: 1) Enhance Access to Capital: Mobilize Africa’s Financial Resources; 2) Reform and Consolidate the Continent’s Financial Systems, Institutions and Talent to Assert Africa’s Global Agency; 3) Harness the Demographic Dividend Transformation for Economic Development; 4) Build Climate-Resilient Infrastructure and Robust Value Addition to Natural Resources.
Context and Rationale
The Annual Meetings are the Bank’s largest gathering, convening more than 3,000 leaders from the public and private sectors, including finance ministers of the Bank Group’s 81 member countries. The 2026 Annual Meetings will take place May 25-29, 2026, in Brazzaville, Republic of Congo, at the Grand Hôtel de Kintélé, under the theme “Mobilising Africa's Development Financing at Scale in a Fragmented World.”
