'Eliminating poverty in Africa: '
by Liesl Louw-Vaudran
Summary:
New research by the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) African Futures Project
shows that Africa will realistically, only achieve the 1990's slogan of
'making poverty history' by 2063.
The forecast maps out a comprehensive set of policy interventions that will make
every African citizen sit up and think again about the sometimes-morose
predictions for the continent's future.
The future is certainly largely unpredictable, and the researchers admit that
shocks or unforeseen political interventions – Ebola comes to mind – can
steer things in a completely different direction.
Agenda 2063 marks 100 years after the formation of the OAU. The research shows
that such a distant time horizon may be appropriate given the deep-rooted nature
of Africa's poverty challenge.
