About the ECCAS Mission
A Regional Commitment to Resilience, Recovery, and Agricultural Sovereignty
The ECCAS Mission under the Agenda 74 Agency represents a foundational step toward building inclusive, climate-resilient, and economically integrated societies across Central Africa. Anchored in the Agenda for Social Equity 2074 and aligned with the African Union’s Agenda 2063, the ECCAS Mission is not a replication of other regional models—it is a response to a different reality.
Central Africa faces a convergence of structural challenges: protracted conflict, institutional fragility, food insecurity, and widespread displacement. Millions of people across the region are refugees in their own countries. Public institutions are under strain, and rural communities remain disconnected from both infrastructure and opportunity. Yet within this adversity lies a rare opportunity—to build systems that are not only functional, but just; not only efficient, but inclusive.
What We Want
We want to transform Central Africa from a region of humanitarian dependency into a region of sovereign development. We want to ensure that agriculture is not a survival strategy, but a platform for prosperity. We want to build institutions that are resilient, infrastructure that is regenerative, and economies that are inclusive.
We want to:
- Rebuild rural economies through climate-resilient agriculture and cooperative enterprise
- Deploy modular infrastructure to deliver essential services in fragile and remote areas
- Empower youth and women through vocational training and digital inclusion
- Harmonize agricultural policies and trade systems across ECCAS
- Position Central Africa as a contributor to Africa’s food sovereignty and regional stability
- Ensure that no country, community, or citizen is left behind
Our Goals
The ECCAS Mission is guided by five strategic goals:
-
Anchor Transformation in the Central African Republic
- Deploy CAR-SFPSEI as the regional demonstration site for Agenda 2074
- Integrate SDEP and ECHO modules to build resilient food systems and rural infrastructure
-
Build a Regional Blueprint for Agricultural Sovereignty
- Develop ECCAS-wide frameworks for seed systems, fertilizer access, biosafety, and bioprotectants
- Establish regional trade corridors and commodity exchange platforms
-
Empower People Through Skills and Institutions
- Launch vocational training programs in agriculture, construction, and renewable energy
- Strengthen public institutions and local governance through cooperative models
-
Digitalise and Decentralise Service Delivery
- Use ECHO hubs to deliver energy, water, education, and connectivity in underserved areas
- Deploy FlexSus for real-time monitoring, climate adaptation, and decision support
-
Position ECCAS as a Regional Leader in Resilience and Equity
- Align with AfCFTA, Agenda 2063, and Agenda 2074
- Engage with AfDB, World Bank, and bilateral partners for structured investment
Expected Impact
The ECCAS Mission is designed to deliver measurable, transformative outcomes:
- 5 million people lifted from food insecurity
- 1,000 ECHO hubs deployed across fragile and rural zones
- 100,000 youth trained in climate-smart agriculture and infrastructure
- Harmonized agricultural policies adopted across ECCAS
- CAR positioned as a regional center for agricultural innovation and trade
- Strengthened partnerships with AfDB, ECCAS Secretariat, and global donors
Why the Central African Republic Matters
The Central African Republic is not only the first country in ECCAS to adopt the SFPSEI framework—it is the first to operationalize Agenda 2074. In doing so, it has become the anchor of the ECCAS Mission and the blueprint for regional replication. CAR’s leadership is not symbolic—it is structural. It demonstrates that even in the most fragile contexts, transformation is possible when equity, cooperation, and long-term vision are placed at the center.
