The conference of heads of state and government of the African and Malagasy Union (UAM) decided at a meeting held at Dakar, Senegal, on March 7–10, 1964, to dissolve UAM and to replace it by a new African and Malagasy Union for Economic Cooperation (UAMCE). The decision was in accordance with the recommendations on regional groupings approved by the Council of Ministers of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) at its Dakar meeting in August 1963.
