The Trans African Tourism & Unity Campaign will embark on a historic 40,000-kilometer road journey across 39 African countries. This groundbreaking 163-day initiative will begin in Accra on Monday, August 18, 2025, with the core objective of promoting a visa-free Africa by 2030. The campaign aligns with the African Union’s Agenda 2063 vision for a united and prosperous continent.
Led by former Ghanaian legislator Ras Mubarak and endorsed by the Government of Ghana, the campaign aims to foster continental unity, cultural exchange, and sustainable tourism. The journey’s first stop will be in Lomé, Togo, before proceeding to Cotonou, Benin, and then Nigeria. From there, the campaign will traverse countries across Central, Southern, and Eastern Africa before making its way back through West Africa and ending in Ghana.
The campaign is a bold step toward breaking down visa barriers, boosting intra-African tourism, and driving economic growth and cross-border collaboration. Ras Mubarak, a dedicated Pan-Africanist, stated that the campaign is a movement to reclaim Africa’s narrative through open borders and shared prosperity.
The campaign’s itinerary includes meetings with African Heads of Government to advocate for visa-free policies, along with press briefings, cultural showcases, and various engagements with stakeholders. The initiative is supported by a coalition of partners committed to Africa’s development, including key organizations in finance, insurance, energy, telecommunications, and hospitality.
