Some of world’s most pressing issues are often decided by the leaders of a few wealthy nations.
For far too long, input from Africa, and other places in the global south, have been limited or even disregarded.
But there’s now a push for that to change, specifically within the G20 bloc.
As India prepares to host the summit this year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is calling for the African Union to be given full and permanent membership.
But why now? And what political and economic interests are at stake?
Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom
Guests:
Onyekachi Wambu - Co-executive Director of African Foundation for Development.
Anusha Chari - Professor of Economics and Finance at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Guido Cozzi - Professor of Macroeconomics at the University of St. Gallen in Switzerland.
