The 2024 Economic Development in Africa Report
The 2024 Economic Development in Africa Report, launched today, 10 February, by UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) Secretary-General Rebeca Grynspan and Côte d'Ivoire’s Minister of Trade, Industry and SME Promotion, Souleymane Diarrassouba, examines how African economies can strengthen resilience to trade risks caused by interconnected shocks across political, economic, energy, technological and climate fronts.
The report provides a blueprint to reduce dependence on external markets, expand regional trade networks and leverage the continent’s young population, abundant resources and growing markets to unlock the $3.4 trillion potential of the African Continental Free Trade Area.
