As announced by President Jean-Claude Juncker in his 2018 State of the Union Address, the Commission has proposed an ambitious new 'Africa-Europe Alliance for Sustainable Investment and Jobs', to substantially boost investment in Africa, strengthen trade, create jobs, and invest in education and skills; and a more efficient financial architecture for investment outside the EU, which aims to address the investment challenges and opportunities in Africa, the EU's Neighbourhood and the wider world.

President Juncker said: "Africa does not need charity; it needs true and fair partnership. And we, Europeans need this partnership just as much. Today, we are proposing a new Alliance for Sustainable Investment and Jobs between Europe and Africa. This Alliance, as we envision it, would help create up to 10 million jobs in Africa in the next 5 years alone. I believe we should develop the numerous EU-African trade agreements into a continent-to-continent free trade agreement, as an economic partnership between equals."
