Testing Africa’s Economic Resilience KAS
Testing Africa’s Economic Resilience

One year of war in Europe. Its effects have moved beyond the continent and have hurt economies worldwide. For African countries, growth has decreased and debt has grown substantially. Energy, Food, Logistics: Value-chains are being reshaped, demand for African exports and natural resources is increasing, while for many, food security has decreased. Where lie the opportunities for Africa in these crises? How have African countries adapted to the new economic challenges? One thing is clear. This is a test for Africa's resilience.

The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung invites you to an online-discussion with selected experts from Africa, the United States and Europe for a closer look at Africa's trajectory and individual countries' efforts to strengthen their resilience.

Sign up and join us! On Thursday, 2 March 2023 at 16:00 GMT / 17:00 CET on Zoom.

This event will take place in English only!
