Eunice Asiedu: "Bridging the Divide - The European, African And Asian Labour Market and The Degrowth Nexus"

Economic Policy Competence Center (EPCC, Ghana)

By 2050, Africa’s population is projected to reach 2.2 billion. A key question is how to great create enough, and at the same time, decent jobs. COVID-19, Russia-Ukraine War and Climate Change have exacerbated the unemployment situation in Africa. In particular amongst the teeming youth in Africa, and women who are largely found in the
informal economy and hardest hit by global shocks. The workshop on Employment Generation in Africa – Learning from Good Practices will bring to the fore drivers of employment in Africa, gender dynamics in Africa’s labour market and how progressive policies (national and international) can foster the promotion of decent jobs on the African continent.
