About Us
Driving positive change in Africa and beyond.
The Trade Negotiations and Investment Forum (TNIF) is an independent multi-disciplinary organisation. The Forum drives positive change in Africa and beyond by promoting dialogue, analysis, and a better understanding of the potential contribution to economic and social well being of regional and global cooperation on trade and investment.
TNIF articulates African perspectives on these issues by offering strategic advice, cutting-edge intelligence and analysis of contemporary trends. The Forum brings together policymakers, businesses, civil societies, scholars and experts to exchange ideas, learning and experiences.
Our aim is to create and nuture thought leadership and analytical abilities to foster discovery and innovation, thus generating deeper understanding and pathways to positive action. We shall create a thriving ecosystem of knowledge sharing and collaboration, enabling individuals and organizations to achieve their full potential. Our activities will constitute a valuable addition to African policy formulation and negotiating capacity in the fields of trade and investment.
TNIF will achieve these ends through analytical reports and other periodic publications, along with topical meetings, conferences and training activities.
