The Tripartite is an umbrella organisation comprising three of Africa’s Regional Economic Communities (RECs), namely: the Comesa, EAC and SADC. The Tripartite comprises 26 member countries.
The Tripartite Summit of Heads of State and Government decided on October 22, 2008 to establish a Tripartite Free Trade Area (TFTA) among the Comesa, EAC and SADC blocs. The TFTA agreement was launched in 2015 and opened for ratification by Heads of State and Governments.
