Hva er poenget med en strategi for et kontinent med over 50 land?
Utenriksdepartementet presenterte sin Afrikastrategi i august, etter over et år med dialogmøter med alle som mener noe om Norges engasjement i Afrika. Hva er poenget med en strategi for et kontinent med over 50 land?
Afrika byr på velfungerende demokratier og økonomisk vekst og velstand, men også krig, konflikt, menneskerettighetsbrudd og den verste humanitære krisen i verden.
Vil strategien bidra til en ny giv for norsk engasjement på det afrikanske kontinent? Svarer den på virkelige behov og lokale ønsker eller handler dette først og fremst om norske interesser?
Lise Rakner (UiB), Elling Tjønneland (CMI) og Lovise Aalen (CMI) tar oss gjennom Norges nye Afrikastrategi.
Ta en kikk på strategien og kom til frokost!
