The East African CommunityEast African Community Agreement • May 26th, 2021
On 30 November 1993, the presidents of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda signed the Agreement for the Establishment of a Permanent Tripartite Commission for Co-operation and formally established the Permanent Tri-partite Commission for East African Co-operation. The 1993 Agreement and Commission succeeded several attempts at regional integration between 1948 and 1977; and preceded the establishment of the East African Community (EAC) of 2000 in its current form. On 30 November 1999, a treaty to ‘re-establish’ the EAC was signed. Prior to the establishment of the Tripartite Commission, the governments of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda were involved in several successive regional integration and co-operation institutions. The first of these was a customs union between Kenya and Uganda formed in 1917 (joined in 1927 by Tanganyika or modern-day Tanzania). Thereafter an East African High Commission was established between 1948-1961, followed by the East African Common Services Organisation (1961-1967)
