Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala: ayudas frente al comercio

Economist, international development expert

Sustained growth and rising private investment in Africa create a rare platform for progress, but old debates about aid versus trade miss the bigger picture. A personal story of carrying a dying sister 10 kilometers for medical help highlights the life-or-death impact of effective aid. The real challenge is to unite governments, private sector, and citizens to channel resources into jobs, infrastructure, and women’s economic power. Only by coordinating these forces can Africa build a future that moves beyond crisis to opportunity.
