Africa in the World

January 17, 2023 Presented by CIPS and the Institute for Security Studies This seminar examines the ‘development ceiling’ that the global context places on Africa in four global scenarios, a Sustainable World, a Divided World, a World at War and a Growth World. On the current trajectory, the gap between Africa and the rest of the world on key development indicators is likely to increase. Recent shocks, such as COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine, have accelerated this trend. Dr Cilliers will present the impact of the global and associated African scenarios across various sectors. The full report is available here. Speaker: Dr. Jakkie Cilliers is the founder and former executive director of the Institute for Security Studies (ISS). He currently serves as chair of the ISS Board of Trustees and head of the African Futures and Innovation (AFI) programme at the Pretoria office of the ISS. His 2017 best-seller Fate of the Nation addresses South Africa’s futures from political, economic and social perspectives. His most recent books, Africa First! Igniting a Growth Revolution (March 2020), The Future of Africa: Challenges and Opportunities (April 2021), and Africa Tomorrow (August 2022) take a rigorous look at the continent as a whole. Moderator: Dr. Rita Abrahamsen, Director of CIPS and Professor at the Graduate School of Public and International Affairs, University of Ottawa. Her research interests are in African politics and security, Africa and International Relations, postcolonial theory, as well as the Global Right. https://www.cips-cepi.ca/event/africa...
