Our Vision:
We work with think tanks across Africa and help support them in their activities and outputs that champion free trade and economic liberalism. By working to remove barriers to trade, both tariff and non-tariff alike, we aim to help usher in a new era of prosperity across the continent.
To help us accomplish this goal, we are grateful for the generous and continued support of the Rising Tide Foundation. Thanks to their support, over the next couple of years the IATP and its partners will create several papers, host dozens of events, publish over a hundred articles, and distribute more than ten thousand books. Here are just some of the organisations the IATP is working with:
