The problem definition and problem drivers in the impact assessment (IA) appear to be well-supported by evidence. The IA provides a well-structured analysis of the existing situation and the likelihood for the problem to persist. The IA identifies the initiative's general and specific objectives, which appear to be specific, achievable, relevant and time-bound, but not measurable, as recommended by the Better Regulation Toolbox 'S.M.A.R.T.' criteria.

La coopération de l’Union européenne avec les pays africains et l’Union africaine (UA) repose sur deux cadres distincts: a) les accords de partenariat avec les pays d’Afrique, des Caraïbes et du Pacifique (ACP) et b) la stratégie commune Afrique-UE. L’accord de partenariat, signé à Cotonou (Bénin) en 2000 entre l’Union européenne et les États ACP, constitue depuis plus de 20 ans le fondement juridique autour duquel s’articulent les dimensions politique, économique et de développement du partenariat ...

Africa is the continent most affected by energy poverty, with more than 40 % of its population lacking access to electricity. This is in spite of an extremely high potential for renewable energy generation and an increasing number of fossil fuel developments on the continent. Through its development cooperation programmes, the EU has committed significant funds to reduce energy poverty in its partner countries in Africa. These programmes aim to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 7, which ...

A commitment under the EU Treaties, policy coherence for development requires the EU and its Member States to take into account the objectives of development cooperation in all their external and internal policies that are likely to affect developing countries.
