Africa Practice: Financing of African Economies Summit - A New Deal for Africa?
A reflection on the May Summit hosted by President Emmanuel Macron in Paris, France
On 18 May, more than 20 African leaders, together with the heads of the IMF and AfDB attended the Summit on the Financing of African Economies, hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris.
The summit aimed to help Africa overcome the coronavirus pandemic with the creation of a “new deal”, which will see greater support from global financial powers to replenish depleted coffers. International partners also pledged to help accelerate the continent’s sluggish vaccine rollout.
