Africa\u2019s Renaissance: A Critical Discussion<\/p>\n

Several African countries have experienced rapid economic growth over the past decade. But will growth lead to sustainable development? Can growth be tempered with equity? Is the private sector the key to growth and development? What is the role of aid and foreign investment? How can African countries mobilize their own resources to promote their own development?<\/p>\n

Join us for a lively discussion of these questions with Speakers:<\/p>\n
