Main Expectations: The AGI Portal is expected to assist participating governments and their development partners to:

The AGI can also affect the ability of donors, specialized agencies and multilateral organizations to respond to government priorities in different areas of governance.
Objective/Purpose of Project: Enhancing sustainable development in Africa through the provision of reliable and accountable governance related information. Specific objectives:

3. Strengthen linkages among focal points in view to enhancing information flow, promoting coordination of resources allocated to governance and stronger partnerships at regional level.
4. Strengthen linkages between AGI and governance initiatives in Africa including NEPAD and Africa Governance Forum.
