Renovation Architects: Conrad Gargett Architectus

Principal Consultant: BE Collective (Built Environment Collective)

Project duration: 2017-2024

Historic Importance: Africa Hall was gifted by Emperor Haile Selassie I as a meeting place for African nations and headquarters for the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA). It was here, in 1963, that the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) was established, a key step in the formation of today’s African Union (AU).
