1945

A stark point that arose from the five-Pillar analysis is that most African States (especially those south of the Sahara) are not on track to meet the intended goals and targets of the SDGs or Agenda 2063. The situation has been further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic that has had serious socio-economic impacts on the lives of millions of people. It is not an exaggeration to say that the current constellation of factors is potentially the greatest challenge confronting Africa since the independence era that began in the 1960s. Under such circumstances, African policy makers are confronted with the herculean task of designing appropriate responses that help their economies get back on track, address the socio-economic dimensions of the citizens impacted by the pandemic, and recalibrate their policies and programmes to accelerate or re-start efforts to achieve the SDGs and Agenda 2063.
