Africa’s ability to adapt in a changing landscape
Relations between Russia and the West have changed irreversibly. This will have a lasting impact on the global economy. The outlook for a number of commodities has changed fundamentally. Economic structure may be destiny: Algeria received an unexpected reprieve at a moment that otherwise looked threatening, whereas the picture for energy-importing Tunisia is suddenly bleaker than ever. This webinar looks at which African countries have the economic structures to make the best of the situation. We also look at where institutional factors will play either a positive or negative role in this transition – highly centralised and personalised systems, in which popular anger can be focussed narrowly, are more fragile than democratic and liberal ones in which hardship is experienced as impersonal.
Note: We will be holding one webinar each for APAC, EMEA, and Americas to cater for the difference in time zones. Can’t make it to any of the sessions? Please feel free to register for any session and we will automatically share the recording with you 3 hours after the webinar has finished.
