African advocacy for reforming the global financial architecture reflects the salience of voices on the continent in a changing system of global governance. The continent often features prominently in the calculus of the world’s major and middle powers’ efforts to recalibrate their foreign policies and international economic relations.
Leading African entrepreneurs, advocates, and statesmen will take the stage to debate the various options for Africa’s international relations in this new era of geopolitical competition.
Presented as part of the 2024 Carnegie Africa Forum, a special one-day event that will bring together global thought leaders for discussions on the continent’s role in international cooperation. Hosted by the Carnegie Africa program, this event will leverage the dynamic network of scholars and repository of policy analysis that the program has developed since its founding in 2021 to highlight Africa’s role in the era of climate change, evolving great power competition, and the digital revolution.

It's curious that non of the speakers delved in to issues of slavery colonization and neocolonization that's disrupted the civilization of African peoples... aren't any of the speakers aware of the intents of the articles of the charter of imperialism and the Berlin conference mapping of indegenous African peoples into unworkable chattels called countries? I would have thought that like Asia...the first order of thoughtful consideration is the self determination and full sovereignty of indegenous African peoples into natural countries just like in Asia where they can develop based on their civilizational worldviews instead of this inert reluctance to embrace the civilization of African peoples prior to the trauma and humiliation of slavery colonization and neocolonization...this where to take off... naturally the westphalian model of civilization refuses to acknowledge the right of indegenous African peoples to their natural civilization and right to self determination and full sovereignty beyond their behest.... Small Asian countries like Cambodia and Laos will not subsume their self determination and full sovereignty to large countries like Japan, India or China... small European countries like Sweden, Bulgaria or Iceland won't subsume their self determination and full sovereignty to any euphemism or rhetorics of a herd.... it's disrespectful and the speakers need to go home and do some inflection... Julius Malema was rudely shocked at the polls to disabuse his ideas.
