50. During the reporting period, significant progress was achieved in deepening the partnership between the United Nations and the African Union on conflict prevention, mediation, peacekeeping and peacebuilding, as well as development. The United Nations Office to the African Union continued to work closely with the African Union to strengthen collaboration and unity of action. The Security Council and the Peace and Security Council of the African Union made progress in enhancing collaboration on peace and security issues in Africa, holding their eleventh and twelfth joint consultative meetings on 8 September 2017 in Addis Ababa and on 19 July 2018 in New York, respectively. I welcomed the recognition, expressed by both councils, of the importance of the strategic partnership between the two organizations.
