The active participation of African states and actors in multilateral institutions has been complemented by the development of bilateral relationships that have strengthened their ability to pursue their objectives and interests at a global level.
The continent’s representatives have articulated alternative narratives on important global issues including international trade and institutions and challenges such as climate change and global inequality.
This conference examines the role that African states and citizens play in international relations to develop deeper understanding of the continent’s role in global decision-making and outcomes.
As the continent’s political and socioeconomic landscape continues to shift and diverge, this conference will enable participants to look ahead at the priorities and roles of African actors in global affairs to come.
