📸#GovZAUpdates| Africa Leaders Initiative is a critical project which advocates for comprehensive debt relief for heavily indebted African nations. Many of these nations are facing their most severe debt crisis in decades, making it increasingly difficult to invest in the infrastructure and programmes necessary for sustainable growth and climate adaptation. The groups objective is to free up sufficient fiscal space to enable African countries to achieve their sustainable development goals and pursue the AU Agenda 2063. #BetterAfricaBetterWorld 🌍
AFRICAN LEADERS INITIATIVE ON DEBT RELIEF HE President Matamela @CyrilRamaphosa met several former African Heads of State and Government who are championing the African Leaders Initiative on Debt Relief at Genadendal, his official residence in Cape Town.
