The devastation of COVID-19, the identification of new variants and the lack of vaccines have dampened the positive outlook we have all had for the Africa continent. These factors, coupled with unrest in countries such as South Africa and eSwatini, and with more than seven national presidential elections across the continent that seldom run peacefully, do not bode well for economic recovery.
In fact, Africa is the only global continent where political violence increased in 2020, in comparison to 2019. Statistics support the impression that conflict on the continent is getting worse, not better.
The focus areas for the 2021 Africa Shared Value Leadership Summit are aligned to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and include:
• Economic Growth and the AfCFTA
• The Agile African Entrepreneur
• Gender Equality and inclusion
• The SDGs and Building Back Better
Be inspired by how Shared Value can drive social and economic change in Africa. Hear from a diverse group of thinkers and doers in a series of interactive sessions aimed at fuelling pragmatic discussions and providing real-world insights on how Shared Value thinking can drive Africa’s economic recovery, equality, inclusion and entrepreneurial growth.
As with previous Summits,
purposeful alignment with the UN Sustainable
Development Goals will be a major theme.
