<p><strong>AfCFTA Implementation & Trade Readiness is an independent PHC Public Interest project established to monitor the gap between the African Continental Free Trade Area’s legal and policy framework and its practical commercial usability.</strong></p>
<p>The project will maintain evidence concerning the conditions that determine whether businesses can actually make use of AfCFTA across specific countries, sectors, products and trade corridors.</p>
<p>Rather than treating AfCFTA as a single continent-wide condition that is either “ready” or “not ready”, the project will examine the practical factors that determine usability, including tariff schedules, Guided Trade Initiative participation, rules of origin, services offers, customs and documentation processes, national implementation structures, payment systems, domestic regulation, infrastructure and business awareness.</p>
<p>PHC will use Concerns, evidence, actions, proposals and periodic assessments to maintain a continuously updated picture of implementation progress, obstacles and opportunities.</p>
