The conference will provide a framework for senior government officials, senior development policy and planning officials, development thinkers and researchers, representatives from international organizations, and diplomats from across Africa to explore alternative thinking of the development trajectory of the continent.
The objective of the Conference is to provide a dual exploration for participants:
- A retrospective on Africa's development planning history and experiences
- A forward-looking perspective into future opportunities and challenges that must be tackled
The conference will be organised in three main panels that capture the specific objectives of the event as follows:
- First panel: Six decades of development planning in Africa: Tacking stock of experiences and capacities of African countries
- Second panel: Rethinking development planning in Africa: adapting approaches to the requirements of long-term visions and sustainable development
- Third panel: Leveraging on strategic foresight for an agile, robust, and forward-looking development planning in Africa
