One of the nine Regional
Episcopal Conferences of the Catholic Church in Africa, the Association
of Episcopal Conferences of Anglophone West Africa (AECAWA) was inaugurated
at Ibadan, Nigeria in 1977. A Regional Conference of this nature is a
Conference which comprises the Bishops of a few National Episcopal Conferences
of a given region. In our case, AECAWA is made up of the Inter-Territorial
Catholic Bishops' Conference (ITCABIC) comprising The Gambia, and Sierra
Leone, the Ghana Catholic Bishops' Conference (GCBC) the Catholic Bishops'
Conference of Liberia (CABICOL) and the Catholic Bishops' Conference of
Nigeria (CBCN).
