Human connections are essential in international relations because they can help build trust, generate stability, promote understanding, foster trust and soft power, acknowledge and respect their common humanity, facilitate learning and conduct interstate relations, bring together diverse groups that share a common goal, and increase and expand their influence at various levels.

In times like these, bilateral relations between African nations and the State of Israel are a crucial aspect of their mutual ability to overcome new challenges and transform their economic, diplomatic, and cultural cooperation by reshaping their strategic collaboration with society.

Placing the bilateral relations center stage and economic cooperation as the context entails reinforcing our long history in the business and government domains, based on the vision that what is truly significant is building strong business and human connections as the sources of shared growth and opportunity development for the next 200 years.

With a burning belief in the power of current and future generations of leaders to drive positive transformation for Africa and the State of Israel, the Africa—Israel Economic Cooperation Committee is committed to promoting, fostering, and advancing economic development, trade cooperation, and capital investment between Africa, the State of Israel, and the entire Jewish diaspora across the globe.

We strongly believe that humans and businesses from both the African and Israeli nations present a unique opportunity to forge long-term diplomatic and economic partnerships and build strategic collaborations in which everyone wins.

We strongly believe that strengthening Africa-Israeli economic relations and deepening cross-border connections will lead to economic growth, technological innovation, increased capital investment, and the development of win-win partnerships.
