Office of the African Union Historian |
|
The African Union Historian is charged with writing weekly, biweekly, or monthly summaries of the major events affecting the region. These events are summarized in the history pages (see below). Other states may also submit events and photos to the historian for inclusion on the website by sending a private message to his/her government. Qualifications: The AU Secretary General will appoint an individual from a state in the region, who remains well informed of the events shaping Africa, without bias for any subregion. Budget: The Office of the Historian will receive $30 million from the AU budget every 3 months. These funds are provided to the government of the historian’s home state, but remain under his/her control.
