In July 1989, the Organization of African Unity (O.A.U) now African Union (AU) conducted it's 25th ordinary session of the Assembly of Heads of State and Government in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Africa lndustrialization Day was announced on November 20th during this session. Within the framework of the second industrial development decade for Africa (1991 - 2000), the United Nations General Assembly in December 1989, proclaimed 20th November "Africa lndustrialization Day" through resolution (A/RES/44/237). Since then, the United Nations system has held events that day throughout the world to raise awareness about the importance of Africa's industrialization and the challenges faced by the continent. Africa Industrialization Day is an event in which African governments and organizations come together to explore ways to facilitate and advance Africa's industrialization. It marks the start of Africa industrialization week with the African Union (AU) summit on industrialization and economic diversification taking place in Niamey, Niger Republic from 20th - 25th November, 2022. The theme for this year's Africa lndustrialization Day 2022 is: "lndustrializing Africa: Renewed commitment towards inclusive and sustainable industrialization and economic diversification".
