About Us

ARMFA Membership

Per the ARMFA Constitution and By-Laws (2018), Clause 6 — Membership, Rights and Obligations of Members — ARMFA comprises three categories of members across 35 African countries.

35
Member countries

ARMFA currently comprises 35 countries — including English, French and Portuguese-speaking members — along with one Associate Member. Membership is open to all Road Maintenance Funds in African countries. Countries with federal systems are admitted as Associate Members, which renders them non-voting members of the General Assembly.

Regional Coordination

Members across four regional focal groups.

To facilitate coordinated management, ARMFA's 35 member institutions are grouped into four Regional Focal Groups. Each holds regular meetings to address issues of mutual interest, with outcomes submitted to the General Assembly during ARMFA's Annual Conference.
