Parliamentarians from Africa and Europe met in the capital of Namibia, Windhoek, from the 24th to the 26th of November 2023 for the fourth Africa-Europe Parliamentary Conference under the title “New approaches in European Africa policy and in bilateral party cooperation.” In a total of five panel discussions, it was discussed what expectations Europe and Africa can have from each other; what trends there are in security policy on the African continent and how these are integrated into European security interests; what developments there are in international party cooperation; what challenges government parties in Africa face and under what conditions opposition parties work in Africa. Of note was an expert presentation dealing with values in Africa and led to a discussion of the extent to which African political parties represent social values.
