THE Commissions of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the African Union (AU) commenced a three-day technical engagement in Abuja aimed at strengthening co-operation between the Continental Early Warning System (CEWS) and the ECOWAS Early Warning and Response Network (ECOWARN).
The meeting, taking place from 8 to 10 June 2026 at the new ECOWAS Commission Headquarters, forms part of a coordination and experience-sharing visit by a delegation from the West Africa Regional Desk and the CEWS Situation Room of the AUC in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to the ECOWAS Commission.
The meeting builds on the outcomes of the September 2025 AU–ECOWAS–WANEP Early Warning Desk-to-Desk Technical Meeting on Joint Conflict Analysis and Governance Monitoring in West Africa and seeks to advance the implementation of the agreed roadmap for enhanced collaboration, information sharing, and conflict prevention.
