Should the #BRI and #AfCFTA be linked? Complementarities exist - but there are risks too. A more coordinated #African response is needed to grasp opportunities without sacrificing competitive advantages say our analysts @OvigweEguegu & Yike Fu in a new @SAIIA_info policy brief.
Now the work of reallocating for the most impact begins. https://twitter.com/David_McNair/status/1422450203215474702
Why should the new @IMFNews #SDRs - ostensibly created to help tackle #COVID19 - be redirected or reallocated immediately to poorer countries in the world, and how?
@hmryder and @sophiakladaki explain all in @qzafrica.

A welcome new step by @IMFNews members - the creation of $650bn globally to respond to #COVID19.
Our analysis suggests to make a real difference the $650bn should now be redirected away from the wealthier to poorer countries. #reimagine

A good place to start would be the #blueprint we have published for an #AfricaChina strategy. It provides a framework, benchmarks and initial policy recommendations supporting that strengthening. See:

"Had the vaccines administered so far (~3.9bn) been distributed simply by population, #Africa would have 655m vaccines to administer. That would have been enough to fully vaccinate about 24% of the population now”.

Don't miss this event tomorrow - 28th July - to learn more about the #globalpublicinvestment concept and discuss how it could be a game changer for the future of #development partnerships.
In this podcast @SanushaNaidu & @arinamuresan call for strengthened #African strategies towards #China. That's exactly what we've been working on providing a starting point for - a cross-continental "blueprint", with crucial strategic recommendations

Can the relationship between #African countries and #China be described as a "stronghold" by China? What more can #African countries demand from the relationship? Read our #blueprint for a cross-continental Africa-China strategy to find out #agency

Interesting #thread explaining why the term #VaccineDiplomacy must be avoided.
-- "It's often used to imply competition - though in the past it referred to collaboration."
-- "It's often used to differentiate #China🇨🇳 #India🇮🇳 or other #SSC providers from traditional donors." https://twitter.com/DevReimagined/status/1419505811605180418
"Today’s 1.3bn Africans and those of the future are entitled to a carbon neutral future abroad and at home."
In advance of #COP26, our CEO @hmryder argues in @AfricanBizMag for a new view of #African countries when it comes to #climatechange.

Why is the term "vaccine diplomacy" problematic? In a @Diplomat_APAC article @RosieRoserver lays out 5 reasons:
1⃣ It implies vaccines are sold/donated for strategic reasons - not efficacy;
2⃣It implies sales/donations are one-offs - not built on existing relationships

Better late than never: Can #China help #Kenya break the 2% wall? Our trade analyst @PAnam_tradelaw reflects on how, having responded decisively to avoid overwhelming health systems, #Kenya is suffering from global #vaccine supply shortages & what next. https://chinaafricaproject.com/analysis/better-late-than-never-can-china-help-kenya-break-the-2-vaccine-wall/
"There needs to be some guarantee that [countries and organisations] will buy volumes of vaccines from Africa."
Great to see @JNkengasong reiterating the recommendation for local procurement targets that we made in our decolonising #globalhealth report.
