Policy analyses

How is Africa positioning itself in a rapidly evolving global landscape? What are the key opportunities to enhance relations between Africa and Europe, and strengthen ties between African nations and Italy? How can conflicts be effectively managed, food security improved, and Africa’s vast renewable energy potential unlocked? What role can climate finance play in mobilizing essential resources for development? And how can African countries leverage their growing young population to achieve the demographic dividend?

These are just some of the critical questions that Africa Nexus seeks to explore. Through fresh and innovative approaches, it aims to generate ideas that inform academics, policymakers, and practitioners in Africa, Europe, and Italy. Its policy-oriented analyses are grounded in comprehensive trend assessments, developed in close collaboration with African experts and researchers, and enhanced by the use of strategic foresight methodology to anticipate future developments and provide forward-thinking solutions.

Leveraging a robust network of contacts across diverse regions, in-house specialists and commissioned researchers gather first-hand insights and engage with key stakeholders from various sectors. This collaborative and forward-looking approach ensures the development of nuanced, evidence-based, and actionable analyses that address Africa’s dynamic challenges and opportunities.
