The G20 Summit, wrapped up in Johannesburg over the weekend, with African priorities taking centre stage, from debt restructuring and climate finance to reforms in global governance.
For the first time, South Africa hosted the summit on the continent, giving African leaders a rare platform to push for a fairer international economic order.

To help us unpack the outcomes and what they signal for the continent’s economic and political future, we’re joined by Desire Assogbavi, Advocacy Advisor for Africa at the Open Society Foundations (OSF).
