可持续经济特区—推动肯尼亚和埃塞俄比亚轻工制造业发展的新举措

在过去5年里,东非地区一直受益于该地区不断增长的外国直接投资所带动的贸易增长,这主要由新来的投资者,比如像中国那样富有经济活力的国家所推动。然而,这种增长使得肯尼亚和埃塞俄比亚都陷入了两难境地,因为这两个国家都将轻工制造业视为经济增长的下一个驱动力,希望在为数百万年轻人提供就业的同时也能做到保护环境。

P4G项目(2030年绿色发展和全球目标的合作项目)是正由非洲制造倡议(MIAI) 和 英国·系统IQ公司(Systemiq UK) 联合执行的一个项目。作为其战略合作伙伴,睿纳新国际咨询公司旨在识别特定的经济特区(SEZs),它们既有可能从中国获得租赁同时也具有支持联合国可持续性发展目标(SDGs)的关键要素,而其中P4G又是一个很大的支持项目。

该项目旨在证明以实现可持续发展为目标而设计的工业和贸易区可以实现长期经济发展与公共利益,具体做法是在埃塞俄比亚和肯尼亚政府的支持下提供一个统筹全局的解决方案,以探索开发新的可持续经济特区的可行性。

埃塞俄比亚和肯尼亚的新可持续经济特区将在工业园区实现零废物排放、废物转化能源和资源高效利用等可持续发展成果,这将有效减少经济特区的碳排放总量,同时大幅增加生产产出。

为什么选择中国企业?

中国企业一直在寻求将其海外运营迁往其他国家,能让中国企业有动力迁移的国家要么可能提供更低的劳动成本和生产成本,要么能为其产品提供新的潜在市场。睿纳新正在帮助协调潜在租户的这些需求与该项目的需求,以产生战略性的可持续影响。

中国的制造业转移为世界其他地区提供了8500万个工作岗位和数十亿美元的投资机会。非洲国家可以通过确定自身重点行业来抓住这一发展机遇,但同时也要能够满足中国公司搬迁或到非洲经济体设立子公司的相应要求与条件。

中国也有丰富的经验可以分享,过去30年经济特区的发展不仅使中国成为了一个工业化国家,也被认定为经济特区发展的标杆,所以这个项目也希望能借鉴中国发展经济特区的经验以支持非洲经济特区的建设。

睿纳新与其合作伙伴非洲制造倡议(MIAI)和英国·系统 IQ公司(Systemiq UK)一起,利用我们以前在其他撒哈拉以南国家的项目中工作的经验,将其对东非地区独特需求的理解带到P4G项目中。睿纳新将竭力推动建立可持续发展的经济特区,促进人权、社会福利的保障和抑制工业生产对环境的影响,同时旨在扩大经济增长和创造就业机会。
