This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines the findings and suggestions of the Law and Society Association’s International Research Collaborations, which focused on the African Union’s Agenda 2063. This outlined the ideal Africa aspired to by the year 2063: ‘the Africa we want’. The authors examine socio-economic rights issues and their impact on developing a strong educational agenda that can drive Africa to realize Agenda 2063. As Africa’s development has remained slow in the face of many challenges, the need to embrace good governance, rule of law and human rights obligations are major tools to realize the continent’s potential. The project focuses in particular on the central place of education law and policy in achieving the goals of Agenda 2063.
Download or read book Challenging the United Nations Peace and Security Agenda in Africa written by Dawn Nagar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book concerns the United Nations’ peacemaking, peacekeeping, peace-building, and post-conflict reconstruction efforts in Africa from 1960 to 2021. Succinctly discussed are historic and contemporary peace, security, and economic engagements within 18 countries spanning eight African regions: the Great Lakes; the Economic Community of Central African States; East Africa; the Horn of Africa; North Africa; the Sahel Region; West Africa; and Southern Africa. The book develops a neo-realist and imperialist critique that discusses how resource-rich, conflict-ridden states have become easy targets for capitalists, terrorists, and transnational crime, aligned to geostrategic parochial interests. Critically argued is that endogenous economic growth factors, if applied effectively, can achieve both peace and security, and meet the Global Sustainable Development Goals. Such efforts require constructive engagement with the five permanent members of the UN Security Council: China, France, Russia, the UK, and the US. However, the book contends that the cornerstone of multilateral engagement involves Africa’s 55 states and the African Union’s three major pillars: the Peace and Security Council, the African Governance Architecture, and the Post-Conflict Reconstruction Development Centre, which have the ability to move resource-rich, conflict-ridden states out of transnational crime and poverty. This book offers wide-ranging analyses of contemporary African diplomacy and a compelling critique of UN peacekeeping efforts in Africa, which resonates to scholars of international relations, peace and conflict studies, and African politics.

This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes African cities in transition, and the economic, socio-political, and environmental challenges resulting from rapid post-colonial urbanization. As the African continent continues to transition from urban configurations inherited from colonial influences and history, it faces issues such as urban slum expansion, increased demands for energy and clean water, lack of adequate public transportation, high levels of inequality among different socio-economic population strata, and inadequate urban governance, planning, and policies. African cities in transition need to reconsider current policies and developmental trajectories to facilitate and sustain economic growth and Africa’s strategic repositioning in the world. Written by an international team of scholars and practitioners, this volume uses case studies to focus on key issues and developmental challenges in selected African cities. Topics include but are not limited to, smart cities, changing notions of democracy, the city’s role in attaining the SDGs, local governance, alternative models for governance and management, corruption, urbanisation and future cities.

Download or read book Africa Must Be Developed written by Charles Mwewa and published by American College of Physicians. This book was released on 2023-07-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No matter where Africa is discussed, it's always an elephant in the room. Because each time there is a discussion on Africa, two facts are implied without necessarily being expressed: Africa is mostly Black and developing. The author avouches that what are regarded as Africa's liabilities are, in fact, Africa's assets. "Black and developing" that's a badge of honor and no other peoples on earth share that designation. Whether by divine design or by pure chance, the significance of black is just being rediscovered (even those who used it with negative racial connotations are slowly discovering the power imbedded in color black) and what is developing can only go up; and the 22nd Century is setting an agenda for the unmatched domination of Africa in global affairs. The same way the world flocked to Africa for its raw materials in the 19th Century, as a repeat, it will show up for its brains and prowess in the new century, only this time Africa will be ready and prepared and nothing would hoodwink its brainocrats.
Download or read book New African Thinkers written by Olga Bialostocka and published by HSRC Publishers. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chapters in the book are based on papers presented at the 9th Africa Young Graduates and Scholars (AYGS) conference titled "Agenda 2063: an opportune moment for Africa" that was held at the University of Cape Town from 30 March to 1 April 2015. Agenda 2063, prepared by the African Union (AU), is a strategic framework for Africa's transformation towards inclusive growth and sustainable development over the next 50 years. Summarized in seven aspirations, it seeks to harness to continent's assets -- its people, history and culture, natural resources, as well as the position of the continent in the global arena. The framework advocates for, among others, equitable and people-centered growth and development, eradication of poverty, development of human capital, creation of infrastructure and provision of public goods and services, women and youth empowerment, promotion of peace and security, strengthening of democratic states, and creating participatory and accountable governance institutions.--From the Preface.
