“Our civilization, the global civilization, has begun in Africa… We can bring African Renaissance if we understand our history,” remarked H.E. Hailemariam Dessalegn, the former Prime Minister of Ethiopia and current Board Chair of the Alliance for Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA), at a Presidential Plenary on the theme “United We Stand, Divided We Fall: Building Alliances for Shared Prosperity for all Africans” during The Afreximbank Annual Meetings and AfriCaribbean Trade and Investment Forum in Nassau, The Bahams, from 12 to 14 June 2024.
His Excellency pointed out that recognizing Africa’s role in global civilization can inspire future generations. However, to achieve true prosperity, it is indispensable to move from a rent-seeking political economy to one that focuses on production and competition. This shift demands visionary leadership to drive change and unlock Africa’s full potential.
