• AU Watch’s donors play an essential role in sustaining the quality, independence and impact of our work by providing critical intellectual engagement and financial resources to support a wide range of projects on the policy questions facing decision makers at the AU and AU Member States.
• The individuals, corporations, foundations, and government agencies that contribute to AU Watch value not only the empirical inquiry and practical policy recommendations we produce regularly, but also the practical nature of our work.
• Our donors attend a variety of public and private events that allow rich intellectual exchanges with our staff, scholars and Governing Council. They also get a first look at our work and receive special updates and other communications from AU Watch’s Chairperson, Bahame Tom Murkiya Nyanduga.
AU Watch provides a number of ways for donors to get involved in the practical and intellectual life of the organization.
These include exclusive invitations to private events and conference calls on pressing policy topics, private issue briefings from scholars, complimentary publications, and reserved seating at public events. Donors also can choose to receive periodic communications from AU Watch that highlight recent research and impact.
