Our main topics

Diaspora Impact Investments for Resilient Economies

Digital Economy as a Key factor to Development

Development of Human Resources as Key Factors for Economic Growth

Structural Foundation for Funding Economic Integration

Podium Discussion: African-Asian-European economic relations – dependence or equal Partnership?

 

Women Forum 25.05.2019 – discuss different topics and workshop

African women and girls are the groups most affected by poverty. Lack of access to education, health care, technology, political
participation, country and economic opportunities and the experience of gender-based exploitation and discrimination is
structural stumbling blocks. Although they account for 61.9% economically produced goods, only 8.5% of African wage earners in the non-agricultural sector are women. At the same time, according to UNESCO, two-thirds of the global population are uneducated female.
However, only if the chances of women’s participation in education, economy, society, and policy can be improved, the overall
situation in Africa will improve. Because the first teacher, supervisor, and boss in every man’s life is a woman.

 

Young Leaders Forum 25.05.2019 – discuss different topics and workshop

This conference unit was developed with the aim of bringing future executives of the Diaspora and Africa to enable them to address cultural identity problems and to overcome structural disadvantages, to become innovative global actors and active players and to become co-designers of Agenda 2063.
