We are happy to announce a new 2-year partnership between ETTG and the Stiftung Mercator GmbH , titled: “Partnership of Equals” in a Multi-Crisis Context: The nexus between digitalization and development”
The joint ETTG-Mercator initiative seeks to look into more equitable and mutually beneficial Africa-Europe partnerships, breaking away from the traditional North-South dependency paradigm.
Through a series of multi-stakeholder events in Africa and Europe, as well as multiple publications, the project aims at facilitating constructive discussions that can effectively evaluate the consequences of multi-crises on the Africa-Europe partnership, with a specific focus on democratic governance and hashtagdigitalization.
Furthermore, it seeks to identify mutual aspirations as well as potential areas of divergence between Europe and Africa in their pursuit of shared objectives.
In addition, it aims to propose tangible and practical strategies that can be implemented to enhance collaboration between the African Union and the European Union in the nexus areas.
