Africa: Year in Review 2015
2015 was an eventful year for Africa. The continent faced persistent and newly-emerging challenges, like the continuing crisis in South Sudan and stalled progress on land reform in South Africa, but also experienced breakthroughs and steady progress, like the Nigerian elections, the reauthorization of AGOA, and Tunisia鈥檚 democratic consolidation. As we look ahead to 2016, it鈥檚 clear the future holds both promise and risk for the continent.
浪花直播 Africa Program asked African and international experts, policymakers, and practitioners to share their perspectives on the most important developments across the continent in 2015, and what they meant for the future of U.S.-Africa relations. They responded with brief and insightful essays on topics across the realms of governance, security, trade, and international partnerships.
