The African Games, formerly known as the All-Africa Games or the Pan African Games, are a continental multi-sport event held every four years. 
Organized by the African Union (AU) in collaboration with the Association of National Olympic Committees of Africa (ANOCA) and the Association of African Sports Confederations (AASC), these games bring together athletes from across the African continent. The event has been instrumental in promoting sports development and fostering unity among African nations since its inception in 1965.
With the next edition of the African Games scheduled to be held in Cairo, Egypt, in 2027, the legacy of this prestigious sporting event continues to grow, aligning with the vision of using sports for national and continental development.
