Overview
Join us at the 11th Africa Regional Forum on Sustainable Development (ARFSD) for a side event on Advancing inclusive development during complex political transitions. This event will explore innovative policy options, drawing from the findings of a recent UNDP report 'Advancing Inclusive Development: Policy Options for Burkina Faso, Guinea, Gabon, Mali and Niger' (download here)
Organized by the Africa Facility to Support Inclusive Transitions, a joint UNDP-African Union programme, and African Futures at the Institute for Security Studies, the event will bring together policymakers, development practitioners, civil society representatives, and private sector actors to exchange insights, share experiences, and propose policy recommendations that promote inclusive development in contexts of complex political transitions.
