The Chamber of Commerce, Development & Integration Brazil ECOWAS is a civil and private law entity, officially recognized by ECOWAS member countries.
The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) is a regional group of 15 West African countries. Founded on May 25, 1975, with the signing of the Lagos Treaty, its mission is to promote economic integration in the region.
Considered one of the pillars of Africa's Economic Communication, the organization was founded to achieve "collective self-reliance" of its member states, creating a single large trading bloc through an economic and trade union. It also serves as a force for peace in the region. The region officially operates in three languages with the same level of importance: French, English and Portuguese.
Some members of the organization have come and gone from ECOWAS over the years. In 1976, the Republic of Cape Verde joined the group and in December of 2000, Mauritania have left, after announcing its intention to leave the bloc in December of 1999.
