"Where is the European or American equivalent/alternative to China's BRI? Where is it? If Chinese loans are deceptive and are a trap and are wrong - where are the Western alternatives? How come our "shared" values do not include building our infrastructure?" https://twitter.com/gyude_moore/status/1290986894755532801
There are numerous #China-funded #agriculture projects in #Africa. But how do Chinese organisations work out whether they are cutting #poverty? Our @petergrin discussed with Prof Xu Xiuli, a leading expert in this area - in a @eolander q&a piece.

Across the world, #digitaltrade is being seen as a likely #COVID19 winner. #China combines the largest #ecommerce market globally with special schemes to help cut #poverty. Can this model be used in #Africa? Our @LeahLynch_China explain why Yes and No!

Excellent thread on the impact of #COVID19 across Africa. One clear trend is the early action that so many countries took, which has helped to stop the spread. https://twitter.com/DevReimagined/status/1289750039414190080
