Notre Histoire
Le 28 mai 1975, à Lagos au Nigeria, 15 chefs d’État ouest-africains signent le Traité fondateur de la CEDEAO. Leur vision : bâtir une Afrique de l’Ouest unie, prospère et en paix.
Un Demi-Siècle de Progrès
Libre circulation des personnes, passeport communautaire, union douanière, maintien de la paix, institutions communes… En 50 ans, la CEDEAO a transformé l’Afrique de l’Ouest.
Vision 2050 : Une Communauté de Peuples
D’ici 2050, la CEDEAO ambitionne de créer une communauté pleinement intégrée : monnaie unique, citoyenneté communautaire, infrastructures connectées et prospérité partagée pour 500 millions de citoyens.
